The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

aktrises stāstā par dzīvi Losandželosā – no pagājušā gadsimta 60. līdz 80. gadiem – un, protams, par viņas septiņiem vīriem... Evelīnai šķetinot stāstu par godkārīgajiem mērķiem un ambīcijām, negaidītu draudzību un spēcīgu mīlestību, Monika pamazām sajūt patiesu saikni ar leģendāro filmu zvaigzni, tomēr, stāstam tuvojoties noslēgumam, kļūst skaidrs, ka abu sieviešu dzīves traģiskā un neatgriezeniskā veidā ir kaut kā saistītas. Valdzinošs ceļojums cauri senās Holivudas spozmei, divām sievietēm cīnoties – lai ko tas nozīmē un maksā – par patiesību. No angļu valodas tulkojusi Ingūna Martinsone.

Evelina Hugo – a Hollywood film legend – is finally ready to reveal the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. When she chooses the little-known journalist Monika Grant for this task, no one is more surprised than Monika herself. Why her? And why now? Monika is divorced, and her professional life is also not going well. Therefore, she uses this opportunity as a stepping stone for her career advancement. Invited to Evelina's elegant apartment, Monika listens, enchanted, to the famous actress's story about life in Los Angeles – from the 1960s to the 1980s – and, of course, about her seven husbands... As Evelina unravels the story of ambitious goals and ambitions, unexpected friendships, and strong love, Monika gradually feels a genuine connection with the legendary film star. However, as the story approaches its conclusion, it becomes clear that the lives of both women are tragically and irreversibly connected in some way. A captivating journey through the splendor of old Hollywood, as two women fight – whatever it means and costs – for the truth. Translated from English by Ingūna Martinsone.
