A flickering, unflinching, and almost eerie novel about the search for the right life in the wrong one. Maria Wyeth is a model legend and a film star. Yet in 1960s Los Angeles, she loses control over her own life. Her mentally impaired daughter is taken away from her. Her shattered marriage is beyond saving, and her disastrous love affairs and supposed friendships offer little comfort. Every morning at 9:30, she gets into her car and speeds down the highway – in the fast lane with the radio turned up loud, until somewhere in the middle of nowhere, where the flawlessly burning concrete simply ends, the feeling of emptiness dissipates. Insightful, moving, and eerily cool – no one tells the story of Hollywood's deep black shadow as unpretentiously as Joan Didion.
