Rezension zu „Three Girls and Their Brother “
Praise for 'Three Girls and their Brother': 'Coming from an already highly-acclaimed screenwriter, Rebeck knows how to spin a good yarn' Daily Mirror 'This snappy, scathing novel from the acclaimed playwright follows the trio of gorgeous Heller sisters who get famous and become darlings of the fashionista set - until their youthful world hilariously implodes.' More Magazine 'This is a novel the reader will greedily gobble up - its compelling, sometimes cutting, but never dull. The characters are convincing busy and intimate.' Cork Evening Echo 'Both dark and comic' Publishing News 'Rebeck shines...her insiders look at the theatre world is spot on and uproarious...crackling satire and scene stealing secondaries carry the book' US Publishers Weekly 'Playwright Rebeck's first novel is a wickedly enjoyable expose of modern celebrity...Rebeck's dramatic skills are evident in the youthful, often profane voices...A timely and entertaining modern morality tale.' Kirkus '"Three Girls and their Brother" is a brilliant fiction debut. Rebeck weaves such an atmosphere of excitement and turmoil. I felt genuinely close to these characters - all three sisters and their brother. The insider's look at the life of young models and the way instant success can upend everything resonates in hilarious and heart-breaking ways. I found it impossible to put this book down." Carol Goodman, Author of 'The Lake of Dead Languages' Praise for Theresa Rebeck: 'Theresa Rebeck is so slick that Gucci wears her shoes.' New Yorker
