About Books, November 7, 2009

Joseph Kanon continues his fictional work on the post WWII era with a fascinating look at Hollywood. "Stardust" has it all: the luxurious cross country trains filled with celebrities, paranoid producers, flashy cut throat gossip columnists, politicians suspicious of Communists and labor strikes. Among all of that is a soldier snooping around to find out why his brother had a tragic accident leaving a lovely German war bride/actress behind. Reading "Stardust" is like watching a good classic movie.
