Estranged from her mother due to a violent step-dad, most of the young couple’s meager resources go to drink and drugs. Maddie and some friends harbor hopes of putting on their own production of \u003ci\u003eThe Tempest\u003c\/i\u003e. As she moves from one low-paid acting role to another, and from the abusive relationship with Mike to talented actor Alex, can Maddie confront the past and find a way of living in the present? This book perfectly evokes 90s Britain and those living on the margins, while others prosper. This is a compelling study of one young woman learning the life of an actor, as she learns how to live life, negotiating the self-destructive temptations of young adulthood","brand":"Freight Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47058596298992,"sku":"9781910449882","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781910449882_p0.jpg?v=1763626701","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781910449882","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
