Beneath Miss Aluminumâs glittering fairytale surface lies the story of a girlâs insatiable hunger to learn and her anguished determination to understand the circumstances of her motherâs death. Moore gives us a sardonic portrait of Hollywood in the seventies, and of a young womanâs hard-won arrival at selfhood.
What The Reviewers Say
As readers of Moore’s fiction know, she is a brilliant storyteller and sentence-maker.
... striking.
... poignant and hugely entertaining.
It’s easy to sympathize with Moore’s embodiment of the painful, deeply sexist strictures of those years.
