My review:????
Mr Wilder and Me by Jonathan Coe is the story of Calista’s youth, which she looks back on as a middle aged woman, with 1 daughter leaving the nest, and the other making a big life decision. Calista is remembering Billy Wilder, a Hollywood director, whom she follows to Germany for the filming of his latest film, as he is fading out of favour with Hollywood.
This was an enjoyable book, with characters that seemed vivid, interesting and a glimpse at old Hollywood.
This is my first Jonathan Coe book, and I would read more of them!
Mr Wilder and Me was published on 5th November 2020, and is available on Amazon, Waterstones and Bookshop.

I was given this book in return for an unbiased review, so my thanks to NetGalley and to Penguin Random House.
