هفت شوهر اوولین هوگو: رمان

Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now? Monique is not exactly on top of the world. Her husband has left her, and her professional life is going nowhere. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career. Summoned to Evelyn's luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the '80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn's story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique's own in tragic and irreversible ways. Written with Reid's signature talent for creating "complex, likable characters" (Real Simple), this is a mesmerizing journey through the splendor of old Hollywood into the harsh realities of the present day as two women struggle with what it means—and what it costs—to face the truth Cover Dedication Evelyn Hugo to Auction Off Gowns Chapter 1 Evelyn Hugo’s Coming Clean Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Poor Ernie Diaz Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Goddamn Don Adler Chapter 8 Chapter 9 March 4, 1957 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Chapter 12 Chapter 13 Chapter 14 Chapter 15 June 22, 1959 Chapter 16 June 29, 1959 Chapter 17 November 2, 1959 Chapter 18 Chapter 19 Chapter 20 Chapter 21 December 30, 1959 Chapter 22 Chapter 23 Gullible Mick Riva February 1, 1960 Chapter 24 Chapter 25 September 15, 1961 October 2, 1961 October 23, 1961 Chapter 26 November 1, 1961 Chapter 27 Chapter 28 December 4, 1961 December 12, 1961 Chapter 29 Chapter 30 Clever Rex North Chapter 31 November 26, 1962 December 10, 1962 December 17, 1962 Chapter 32 Chapter 33 Chapter 34 Chapter 35 Brilliant, Kindhearted, Tortured Harry Cameron Chapter 36 August 14, 1967 Chapter 37 Chapter 38 Chapter 39 Chapter 40 May 23, 1975 Chapter 41 Chapter 42 Chapter 43 Chapter 44 Chapter 45 Chapter 46 Chapter 47 July 3, 1980 Chapter 48 Chapter 49 Chapter 50 Chapter 51 Disappointing Max Girard June 11, 1982 Chapter 52 Chapter 53 Chapter 54 Chapter 55 July 1, 1988 Chapter 56 February 28, 1989 September 4, 1989 Chapter 57 Chapter 58 Agreeable Robert Jamison January 8, 1990 Chapter 59 Chapter 60 July 5, 2000 Chapter 61 Chapter 62 Chapter 63 Chapter 64 Chapter 65 Chapter 66 Chapter 67 Chapter 68 Chapter 69 Evelyn Hugo, Legendary Film Siren, Has Died Evelyn and Me Reading Group Guide Acknowledgments About the Author Copyright Film legend and ’60s It Girl Evelyn Hugo has just announced that she will auction off 12 of her most memorable gowns through Christie’s to raise money for breast cancer research.
