Ellroy Reads – Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susann

In the latest episode of Ellroy Reads I examine Jacqueline Susann’s monster hit Valley of the Dolls. One of the all-time great novels about fame and addiction, I talk about how the novel inspired James Ellroy and draw some parallels between the narrative and his own struggles with addiction.

I also discuss everything we know so far about James Ellroy’s forthcoming novel – Red Sheet.
