Book Review of The Butterfly Effect

The Butterfly Effect
reviewed on + 8 more book reviews


The book is set in Hollywood in 1938. The title refers to a huge swarm of Monarch butterflies that fly over the city. Rex Reed called it "one of the best books ever written about Hollywood" but be warned: its of the "magic realism" genre, as brilliant and as colorful as the butterflies themselves.
