En savoir plus sur le livre

The narrative explores the life of Grace Metalious, whose controversial novel captured American attention in 1956. A housewife from a small New England town, she achieved sudden fame, challenging societal norms of the 1950s. Her candid portrayal of sex, violence, and hypocrisy in "Peyton Place" shocked the nation, while her personal life—marked by excess and self-doubt—revealed her struggles with identity and success. Emily Toth provides a nuanced portrait of Metalious as both a talented writer and a vulnerable woman navigating the complexities of fame and societal expectations.
