Hollywood Notebook

Poetic memoir; charting life's metamorphosis in L.A.

If you're drawn to the intertwining of personal growth with the pulsating life of Los Angeles, "Hollywood Notebook" might just resonate with you. Ortiz's poetic fragments meld the city's landscape with her journey from youth to adulthood. It's a unique reflection that's as much about the place as it is about personal transformation.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Hollywood Notebook is a prose poem-ish memoir of fragments. Ortiz takes us through the streets of Los Angeles and the internal maps she's charting as she moves from her twenties to her thirties in a studio apartment in Hollywood. A cartography of love, loss, and transformation, Hollywood Notebook is a portrait of the author's psyche overlaid on a map of the city she makes her home. Hollywood Notebook reflects on the hard lessons learned as a young woman navigating through the streets of Los Angeles. By gathering bits of wisdom and poignant life experiences, she pieces together a portrait of her youth as complex and dynamic as the place she calls home.
