Cover Reveal - Somewhere in Hollywood
About the Book:
Welcome to the bouncy castle of Los Angeles in 2004. At the
dawn of social media, Carla and Pete embark on a quest for meaning in a city
where dreams often fade into the smog. They came for indie rock stardom, only
to find themselves sidelined by life's realities and their own emotional
limitations. Carla experiences the true meaning of monotony as a TV extra,
while Pete, wrestling with societal views on bisexuality, answers phones.
Despite their mutual affection, Carla feels rejected, while Pete, secretly
grappling with his identity, shies away from intimacy.
Their world, filled with vinyl records, a spirited cat named
Joni, and an eccentric Hollywood landlady, offers fleeting moments of deep
connection. But the arrival of a charismatic stranger disrupts their fragile
status quo, forcing them to confront faded ambitions and the true nature of
their relationship.
With the pop culture eye of Bret Easton Ellis and lyrical
longing of Just Kids by Patti Smith, Somewhere in Hollywood explores the tight-rope
walk of personal growth and relationship dynamics, capturing the soul of a
generation in search of itself and the relentless pursuit of something more.
