Description - Maybe The Moon by Armistead Maupin
The Number One international bestseller by the author of Tales of the City
All of thirty-one inches tall, Cadence (Cady) Roth is a true survivor in a town where - as she says - 'you can die of encouragement'. Her early leading role as a loveable elf in a smash-hit American film provided a major disappointment since moviegoers never saw the face behind the rubber mask she had to wear. After a decade of hollow promises from the Industry, she is still waiting for the miracle that will make her a star.
Armistead Maupin tracks his spunky heroine across the saffron-hazed wasteland of Los Angeles - from her infrequent meetings with agents and studio moguls to her regular, harrowing encounters with small children, large dogs and human ignorance. Then one day a lanky piano player saunters into Cady's life, unleashing heady new emotions, and she finds herself going for broke, shooting the moon with a scheme so hare-brained and daring that it might just succeed...
Maybe The Moon, Maupin's first novel since his bestselling Tales of the City sextet, is the tale of an outsider told from the inside. It is work that speaks to the resilience of the human spirit.
