"Put this one and A Woman Under the Influence side by side and you have ample proof of my theory that Gena Rowlands is the greatest American actor or actress ever. Period. No prosthetics, no extreme weight gain or loss, no accents or limps . . . and yet has any other actor ever created two more distinct, honest, or complete human beings on-screen? Rowlands somehow simply shifts her center of gravity and transforms from Woman’s selfless and fragile Mabel Longhetti into Opening Night’s cunning and self-obsessed Broadway star Myrtle Gordon. Ben Gazzara is her director, Manny Victor, and the scene where he shares an intimate midnight moment with his neglected wife (the great Zohra Lampert), only to be interrupted by his leading lady, is priceless."

This is unlike any book I’ve previously read however I was lucky to receive a copy from a smashbomb giveaway and I’m so glad I did as it’s the best book I’ve read this year.
The majority of the book centres around Kaya as a young woman known as ‘The Marsh Girl’ having mainly brought herself up out in the marshlands and the events which occur after the body of a young man is found. But we also see her life from young girl leading up to the present and a snapshot of her life through to elderly lady.
It’s a beautifully written story with a beautiful cover that I would recommend to anyone.
