Remake

IIt's the Hollywood of the future, where moviemaking's been computerized and live-action films are a thing of the past. IIt's a Hollywood where Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe are starring together in A Star Is Born, and if you don't like the ending, you can change it with the stroke of a key.

A Hollywood of warmbodies and sim-sex, of drugs and special effects, where anything is possible. Except for what one starry-eyed young woman wants to do: dance in the movies. IIt's an impossible dream, but Alis is not willing to give up. With a little magic and a lot of luck, she just might get her happy ending after all.

'Another brilliant work by an author deserving of the praise and awards heaped upon her.'
