The only downside is that it was a little long-winded and could have been condensed somewhat. As a result the story moves on too slowly at times.Alec Baldwin looks downcast as he steps out for coffee in NYC... after vowing to fight in court if he is charged with involuntary manslaughter over fatal Rust shooting The narrative is told from the point of view of Marcella, Michael and Margaret (as Imrie says herself, ‘so many M’s’). Marcella, a romantic, works as a seamstress for a tailor but wants to be a famous singer. Still in her teens at the start of the novel, she is swept away by romance, heedless of warnings from the family. She does not understand that the apparent spontaneity of her older fiancé actually reveals a controlling and coercive streak in him. He, Michael, is a master tailor who does seem to truly love his young bride at first but comes to hate her as his increasing jealousy of her love for their two children consumes him. That he is also cruel and violent, a thief, a fraud and a liar makes him, as you would imagine, a thoroughly dislikeable character. Nevertheless, Imrie does make clear the shades of love from the early passion to the darker, more painful element. Love hurts!

However it wasn't until the end of the book while reading the epilogue that I learned that this book is factual history. Each person and their story in the book is a documentation of actual people found through meticulous research. I was dumbfounded and even more impressed with the author's ability to write wonderful flowing dialogue and remarkable descriptions of the world that was of that time.Big Brother icon Helen Adams pictured 22 years after her ditsy antics and romance with Paul Clarke shot her to fame on the reality show
