A Table for Two by a Amor Towles

This book is composed of six short stories based in New York City and a novella set in the Golden age of Hollywood. The newer stories most of which take place around the year 2000 consider the faithful consequences that can spring from brief encounters and did the delicate mechanics of compromise that operate at the heart of modern marriages. Eve in Hollywood describes how the Towles' character Evelyn Ross creates a new future for herself and others in a norish scale that takes us through the movie sets, bungalows, and the dive bombers of 1930 Los Angeles
