Molly Bit

ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
A "slick page-turner" (Vanity Fair) about the rise of an enigmatic Hollywood star and her legacy, from Columbia MFA graduate Dan Bevacqua.
A tragic death was not part of the script.

Molly Bit is a great actress. From her first acting classes to her big break she is different from the others struggling to make it.

But fame is perilous. She uses—and is used by—the Hollywood system. Her collaborator is an addict. The producer who promises her stardom is ruthless and unhinged by grief. Fans, friends, strangers—they want and want. And one dangerously obsessed fan will take everything.

Insightful, witty, and shocking, Molly Bit "delves into the dark corners of fame...[while] managing to be a scathingly funny exposé of celebrity life" (Laura Sims, author of Looker) and explores the high stakes of our culture's fascination with the famous and our complicity in their rise and fall. Molly Bit is a "fast, funny, and delightfully fun" (Adam Wilson, author of Flatscreen) debut novel that offers a heartbreaking reflection of fame, obsession, and art's power to redeem loss.
