The Big Set offers an irreverent, behind the scenes portrait of life in New York City, seen through the lens of Elize Lapsene, a twenty-something wannabe actress with dreams of taking Hollywood by storm. She’s young and talented. She wants it all, and she’s prepared to do whatever it takes.Through settings ranging from acting classes and film shoots to glamorous parties and bartending, Elize’s sharp-witted, self-deprecating perspective makes for an entertaining read and a compelling coming-of-age story. The writing style is immersive, drawing us into Elize’s mind and emotions as she lives through highs and lows, opportunities and disappointments, love and heartbreak.Strong writing, sparkling dialogue, and a unique, authentic heroine combine to make The Big Set a fun read and an impressive debut novel.
