When I read the epilogue and a coment of the novel, actually I excatly interesting with the story. The story is looked like about a woman effort to get her dream. Finally I choose this novel and continue reading.
            The main characters of this novel are Lucky Santangelo (Lennie’s wife, a beautiful woman who never compromised and always took chance) and Lennie Golden (Lucky’s husband, an actor and be a movie star when he was thirty seven). In this novel also there are some characters, like Abe Panther (the owner of panther studio), Gino Santangelo (Lucky’s father), Abigaile and Primrose (Abe’s daughters), Mickey Stolli (Abigaile’s husband. The head of panther studio), Ben Harrison (Primerose’s husband).

            The most interesting part of the story is when Lucky disguise to be a secretary in Phanter studio to get some information about the studio. She pretended to be Luce, she wear a wig and glasses and she also wear an old dress. I think it really strain, because sometime there is somebody knows about her disguising.
            The very confuse part when I read this novel is when Lucky decided to choose the studio and left her husband. Actually her first purpose to get the studio is because Lennie always complaint about her job to be an actor in Panther studio and Lucky wanted to help her husband. But when Lennie knew about it, he angry with Lucky and asked her to left the studio. Finally Lucky decided to left her husband and get the studio.
            The part of the story that I dislike most is when Lucky refused to have baby whereas Lennie want to have baby. Lucky decided to get the studio rather than have a baby and stayed at home to be a good wife. I think as a wife she should follow her husband’s order, because she is a woman and she have to be an excellent wife.
            Actually, I have no personal experiences that related to this story. But I think maybe in bussiness world, they can do anything to get their goal. And they also sometimes forget about their first purpose when they decided to take the chance.
            Actually I like with the end of this story. Because finally they life happily together. Lucky get the studio, Lennie is not complain again about his job, and the most happy part is when finally Lucky get pregnant. Lennie’s dream to have a baby is realized and Lucky’s dream to get the studio is also realized.
            The larger issues that raised by the story is about Lucky’s effort to get the studio. Many people doesn’t like her when she get the studio include Mickey Stolli the head of Panther studio and Abe’s son in law. Because he thought that actually he is the person who have to get the studio because he is Abe’s daughter’s husband. But Abe didn’t want to give it to him because he know that Mickey can’t manage the studio. Then Abe asked Lucky to look for the information about the studio and sold the studio to her.
            My experience while I read this novel is I always fall asleep after I read a few pages. Then when I wake up, I confuse what page that have been read. So I repeat it that make me take a long time when I read this novel.
