Hollywood - the edge if the world
Review date: 2005-12-20 Rating: 8 out of 10

Postcards from the Edge is a storey about the farely succesfull Hollywood actress Suzanne Vale. It's drugs, food, boyfriends, carrier..., well all kinds of problems. It's true Hollywood. Not very glamorous actually. Hollywood is the edge of the world, and u can either fall or stay balancing on that edge...

The book is really entertraining and interesting. Carrie Fisher uses many different styles of story telling. At times it's loads of great and intereting dialogue, at times shifting between two persons views of events. and at times dialogue where the talking parties are anonymous his and shes. And all the characters are very intereting too. There is Alex, a crazy drugtaker and wannabe, there is Jack, the procucer who has slept with everybody, and there is Lucy, Suzannes fellow actress who delas with the same problems as she... So all in all I enjoyed the book very much, much more than I expected to.

But who is Carrie Fisher? On the backcover of the book it says that she is an aclaimed Hollywood actress... Well, I've never heard of her... But maybe that is bacause she was famous in the 80s when this book was written... And using google one will find out she was a famous Star Wars actress...
