The Lovomaniacs

Los Angeles: Nash Publishing. Very Good+ in Very Good dj. 1972. First Edition. Hardcover. [solid clean book, light age-toning to page edges, minor shelfwear; jacket has various tiny nicks along top edge, 1/4" triangular chip at base of spine, spine slightly color-shifted]. The only novel by "Miss Rona," at the time one of Hollywood's best-known columnists/commentators. Film historian/ bibliographer Anthony Slide writes in his bibliography, "The Hollywood Novel: A Critical Guide to Over 1200 Works": "In view of the author's background, one would be tempted to dismiss the book as a typical trashy Hollywood novel. One would be very, very wrong. The Lovomaniacs is an extraordinarily complex novel, overlaid with astrological lore, and narrated alternately by each of the major characters. ... It has to be read!" So is it REALLY one of the great overlooked Hollywood novels? There's only one way to find out, friends. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
