American Star: introduced by Isabelle Broom
English
By (author): Jackie Collins
Here is a woman who not only wanted to entertain her readers, but also to teach them something; about the world and about themselves ISABELLE BROOM
'Jackie Collinss daring, unapologetic stroke of the pen, combined with her glorious wit, has single-handedly given creative license to new generations of authors and storytellers.' COLLEEN HOOVER
American Star is a compelling story of love, sex and murder, set against the glamorous backgrounds of New York and Hollywood.
There have been many imitators, but only ever one Jackie Collins. With millions of her books sold around the world, and thirty-one New York Times bestsellers, she is one of the worlds top-selling novelists. From glamorous Beverly Hills bedrooms to Hollywood movie studios; from glittering rock concerts to the yachts of billionaires, Jackie chronicled the scandalous lives of the rich, famous, and infamous from the inside looking out.
