Reviews

“Wonderful, I loved this. Julie is a writer you can ALWAYS trust in the way she portrays women, they are believable, flawed, complex and fascinating. Their motivations, loves, the way they grapple with meaning and their callings is all sensitively done and I love the way she shows the parallels between the two women.”—Georgina Moore, author of The Garnett Girls “A vibrant imagining of the inner lives of two iconic women in the year of their storied encounter . . . Thoroughly enjoyable.”—Charmaine Wilkerson, New York Times bestselling author of Black Cake “Two women struggle with the pressures of fame, work, and marital problems while living close to each other during one eventful summer. This is a brilliant concept, and Moylan has pulled it off perfectly, capturing the voices, vulnerabilities and inner lives of two icons of the twentieth century. I couldn't put it down.”—Gill Paul, author of Jackie and Maria “Exploring the inner lives of two of the most famous people of the 20th century with tenderness and compassion, Elizabeth and Marilyn brilliantly illuminates the women behind the myths.”—Carole Hailey, author of The Silence Project “An immersive and emotionally complex portrait of two brilliant women under unimaginable pressure. Brava!”—Caroline Lea, author of The Glass Woman “We think we know these iconic women, but Owen reveals them in a whole new way. Atmospheric, glamorous, and fun. A hugely enjoyable read.”—Jodie Chapman, author of Another Life “Gorgeous, glamorous and moving. Julie Owen Moylan reimagines Marilyn and Elizabeth with her trademark ability to get under the skin of complex female characters. Brilliant.”—Anna Mazzola, author of The Book of Secrets “A unique premise, perfectly executed and utterly addictive.”—Louise Beech, author of This is How We Are Human
