Acerca de esta escucha
Summer, 1936: Gone with the Wind, Margaret Mitchell's first novel, takes the world by storm. Everyone in Hollywood knows Civil War pictures don't make a dime, but renegade producer David O. Selznick snaps up the movie rights and suddenly America has just one question: Who will play Scarlett O'Hara?
When Gwendolyn Brick gets her hands on the book, the clouds part and the angels sing the Hallelujah Chorus. Only a real Southern belle can play Scarlett - and didn't her mama raise her on stories of Sherman's march and those damned Yankees? She's going to have to stand out bigger than a hoop skirt at a Twelve Oaks barbeque to win that role.
Marcus Adler is the golden boy of Cosmopolitan Pictures, the studio William Randolph Hearst started for his mistress, Marion Davies. When Marcus' screenplay becomes Davies' first hit, he's invited to Hearst Castle for the weekend. The kid who was kicked out of Pennsylvania gets to rub shoulders with Myrna Loy, Winston Churchill, and Katharine Hepburn - but when the trip turns fiasco, he starts sinking fast. He needs a new story, real big and real soon.
When Selznick asks George Cukor to direct Gone with the Wind, it's the scoop of the year for Kathryn Massey, the Hollywood Reporter's newest columnist. But dare she publish it?
The Trouble with Scarlett is the second in Martin Turnbull's series of historical novels set during Hollywood's golden age.

Right before talking pictures slug Tinsel Town in the jaw, a luminous silent screen star converts her private estate into the Garden of Allah Hotel. The lush grounds soon become a haven for Hollywood hopefuls to meet, drink, and revel through the night. George Cukor is in the pool, Tallulah Bankhead is at the bar, and Scott Fitzgerald is sneaking off to a bungalow with Sheilah Graham while Madame Alla Nazimova keeps watch behind her lace curtains.

Historia
Luke Valenti has never fit into his swaggering family of overbearing loudmouths. Even worse, the world is at war again and Uncle Sam has stamped his draft notice “4-F” - the ultimate rejection - because of a rare eye condition that has left Luke unable to see colors. So instead, he dreams of escaping Brooklyn for the beaches of Montauk. That is, until a stolen prop from "The Maltese Falcon" pitches him down a reluctant path to Hollywood. Luke is tasked with returning it to Warner Brothers.

Lucie Montgomery's semi-estranged brother, Eli, calls her in France to tell her that their father, Leland, has been killed in a hunting accident on the family's 500-acre Virginia vineyard. But the vineyard is now shabby and run-down and her siblings want to sell it. Then Lucie's godfather tells her Leland's death was no accident. With her greedy brother, hell-raising sister, and a seemingly cut-rate vintner hired by Leland just before he died, all the suspects are disturbingly close to home.

Historia
All of 31 inches tall, Cady is a true survivor in a town where, as she says, "you can die of encouragement". Her early starring role as a lovable elf in an immensely popular American film proved a major disappointment, since moviegoers never saw the face behind the stifling rubber suit she was required to wear. Now, after a decade of hollow promises from the Industry, she is reduced to performing at birthday parties and bat mitzvahs as she waits for the miracle that will finally make her a star.

TROUBLE WITH SCARLETT: ALLAH 2
What made the experience of listening to The Trouble with Scarlett the most enjoyable?
I liked the way the author incorporates the characters into the making of the movie.
What did you like best about this story?
The scene in the restaurant with Louella.
Have you listened to any of John C. Zak’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes, book number 1. He's awesome!
If you could take any character from The Trouble with Scarlett out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Catherine, I think she has the most substance, and would be an interesting conversationalist.
Any additional comments?
ALLAH BOOKS- SO FAR SO GOOD!!! I JUST DOWNLOADED BOOK 3 🏇👗👒💄👛🏇🏇

Excellent!
Excellent trilogy. The author is my new favorite. The narrator deserves awards. I can't wait to start the final book in about three minutes.

Disappointing
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Had high hopes for this, but I had to stop listening about halfway through. Between John C. Zak's wooden narration and Turnbull's often awkward writing, it just didn't work for me.
What was most disappointing about Martin Turnbull’s story?
The writing is often awkward; Turnbull uses strange metaphors and passive verb forms too often. Factual errors were also a problem. For instance, one character went to a end of Prohibition party with Errol Flynn. But Prohibition ended in 1933 and Flynn didn't come to Hollywood until 1934. Makes me wonder if this book was edited at all.
How could the performance have been better?
John C. Zak's delivery is wooden; that's bad enough, but he also can't pronounce words like 'foyer' and 'segue'. Really?
What character would you cut from The Trouble with Scarlett?
So many.
Any additional comments?
Very disappointing.
