À propos de ce contenu audio

Hollywood Wives meets A Visit from the Goon Squad in this captivating Hollywood drama, an “utterly alive, dazzlingly brilliant, and so true-to-life” (Andrew Lipstein, author of Last Resort) emotional debut novel unraveling the secrets, struggles, and fierce rivalries of actresses navigating celebrity culture, complex careers, and personal truths during a high-stakes award season.

As Hollywood prepares for its most glamorous evening, five actresses compete to see who will claim the top prize.

Adria, a dignified and highly regarded grand dame of the movie industry, is intent on cementing her legacy as one of the greatest thespians of all time, even as the younger generation creeps up quickly behind her. Bitty must keep a nervous breakdown—and an increasingly debilitating alcohol addiction—at bay, as she searches for genuine closeness in an unforgiving landscape. Contessa, a former child star, is determined to make the world, and her leading man, take her seriously. Davina attempts to find her footing in superficial Los Angeles, a far cry from her roots as a serious London stage actress. And Jenny—always the underdog to her rival, Adria—sees this award season as her personal redemption, a chance to atone for past mistakes and make up for missed opportunities.

With humor, wit, and an insider’s insight, The Talent peels back the layers of women who are in the business of being perceived. And while they work to push their careers forward and maintain the public’s goodwill, all five are forced to control truths about themselves that they would rather ignore: Could Adria and Jenny have been a team all these years, rather than bitter enemies? Is it their responsibility to offer a lifeline to poor Bitty, who is clearly teetering on the edge? Should Contessa and Davina dim their own rising stars to make those around them more comfortable? What do women in the spotlight owe to each other, and themselves?

    "Cassandra Campbell is especially strong as Adria, an aging three-time award winner who is worried that her younger costar will outshine her. Nancy Linari captures the alienation and anger of Adria’s rival, Jenny, who feels she never receives significant notice. Shakira Shute as Davina, a British import, offers a particularly winning performance, highlighting her discomfort at being in glitzy Hollywood. As actors Bitty, Contessa, and Eleanor, narrators Mia Hutchinson–Shaw, Jade Wheeler and Janina Edwards all play their parts winningly."
