Once Is Not Enough - Jacqueline Susann

Descriere Once Is Not Enough - Jacqueline Susann

Following its new edition of Jackie Susann's Valley of the Dolls, Grove Press is proud to reissue a classic novel in the author's pantheon of pop-culture mythologies. Once Is Not Enough recounts the colorful life of luscious January Wayne who can't make it with a guy because she has a thing for her glamorous celebrity dad, Mike (Library Journal). \nOnce upon a time, the entertainment industry was a world that never slept. Magazine editors, models, pop stars, and all the rest visited vitamin doctors to get the shots that would allow them to stay up all night and then work all day--in offices decorated with beanbag chairs and Calderesque mobiles. In this world, January Wayne goes from poor-little-rich-girl to grown-up swinger, as she searches New York and Los Angeles for a guy just like Mike Wayne, the glamorous movie producer, who also just happens to be her father. \nThough often panned by critics, Susann's slightly sordid yet thoroughly fabulous novel was embraced by her fans. Once Is Not Enough became Susann's third consecutive novel to reach the number one spot on the New York Times best-seller list--the first time any author had accomplished this feat. The novel would be Susann's last great success: The year after its publication, in 1974, the author died of breast cancer. \nOnce upon a time, the entertainment industry was a world that never slept.
