Entertainment Weekly
As a reporter for New Yorks last evening tabloid, Marie Brown writes about the bizarre and the scandalous. But her life is hardly either. Shes too single, too tall, and too pragmatic for anything other than her routinewhich consists of going to work and going to the library, where she indulges in her one passion, physics, and in conversations with Marco Trentadue, the strange freelance intellectual in blue pajamas. Then the trajectory of her life takes an unexpected turn.
Nora Marsglamour girl, star of stage and screenis near death. Marie has worshipped Nora since she was in high school. Naturally she will write Noras obit. When Marie meets Noras charismatic third ex-husband for an interview, she struggles between a reporters integrity and plain old lust. What Marie uncovers is a story of a starlet who took the exigencies of fame into her own handsand the inspiration to do the same with her own love life.
