review 1: i discovered Phil Brody's book -- The Holden Age of Hollywood while i was playing hide n' seek in the library. i seek a book that i feel is hiding from the world... it wants to be taken home and discovered but no one has been able to find it yet. This is how Phil Brody's book and i became acquainted.After discovering the book, I ended up reading it within two days! Brody has managed to use his experiences to write an original story that will keep you turning the page.The book has all the elements of a noir style film... its a detective novel who's main character ends up discovering things that he wasn't sure he would ever find... love, a reputable career in Hollywood, and a man that almost got away.a treat you can't eat... give the book a try today!
review 2: P... moreart detective novel, part coming of age tale, part romantic work of love for a woman, a city, and a possible red herring, this book is a page turner/brain pleaser. In a time where Hollywood and modern fiction seem to be churning out lazy, uninventive "reboots" and "relaunches" (buzzwords for crap they already own and don't have to pay true talent to acquire effortless new version of) The Holden Age of Hollywood delivers an adrenaline shot to the heart of anyone who loves a great story. If you love Hollywood, if you hate Hollywood, if you love the movies of Humphrey Bogart and the novels of Charles Bukowski, if you've ever had a shot of whiskey or sucked down a mimosa at a champagne brunch, if you've ever driven yourself mad chasing sleep that never comes because you have a thousand-million ideas that won't leave your head, if you like to root for the good guy or you really dig characters that add a new level of stink to the word a#@hole, if you like the simple pleasure you get from having a genuine laugh, if you simply like to read words that feel like the thoughts in your head you wish you had said at that party earlier in the evening, then this book will earn a special place in your life. It is proof, pure and simple, that there are indeed amazing writers out there and gives me hope that the out of touch, money minded monarchs that run Hollywood will one day leave their meritless opinions and need for validation at home and hire a talent like author Phil Brody to pump some blood into the veins of a stale, decaying industry. A great work by a true craft master. less
