The Other Side of Mulholland
The Other Side of Mulholland is: "a frothy, fast-paced exploration of the dichotomies between the two distinct sections of Los Angeles: upper L.A. with 'all the glitz and the big houses and beautiful women and BMWs, and lower L.A., the suburbs 'too dull to be the subject of a TV show or a Joan Didion novel.'"-Washington Post The Other Side of Mulholland is: everything the image-makers of Los Angeles want to keep under wraps: the tract housing, the car dealerships, and the parents' place with its wet bar and kidney-shaped pool. The Other Side of Mulholland is: "a wise exploration of how, for many of us, family ties can not only bind, but gag."-Laura Zigman, author of Animal Husbandry The Other Side of Mulholland is: the cord that tethers twin brothers Perry and Tim Newman to their shared past when the present-with Perry a sleek television producer and Tim a lowly journalist-feels as competitive as Hollywood itself. The Other Side of Mulholland is:"a hugely readable debut by a terrific new voice in American fiction."-Jerry Stahl, author of Plainclothes Naked A Los Angeles Times Book Review Best Book of 2001
