My last book for #tob23 and, despite being wary after all of the mixed reviews, I really liked it. The examination of the lives of workers at a second tier Hollywood movie studio during WWII. They are immigrants, refugees, and American born minorities, each with a vivid backstory and each with their own struggle in the world of movies and the world outside. This felt like a epic cinematic saga. My first by Marra and I am looking forward to more.
