America and the catastrophic world of twentieth-century war, mass murder, and horror are the backdrop of this story of Annie Gianfala, a young woman who finds herself cast adrift in Hollywood with World War II looming.
Defending herself with despairing stubbornness against personal catastrophe, she is able to save her life and escape. ‘Enormously touching and wholly believable.’—Washington Post Book World
