Laura Lamont's Life in Pictures by Emma Straub

3.0

Straub really captured the era of the Big Studio era very competently. I particularly liked how she skipped through time. Many authors would have tried to be completists and given us every last detail of Laura Lamont's career. Straub just hit the high(and low)lights, but still painted a compelling picture of Elsa/Laura. Laura's troubles with her son felt tacked on, I didn't get particularly invested in the relationship, mainly because I don't think her son was as fully drawn as the other characters.
