'Well, I certainly hope this diary never falls into anyone else's hands - wouldn't it be embarrassing for an unknown person to read a girl's most intimate thoughts?'
It's a hard life being a starlet, but Susan Hope is determined to make it. With an innocence untouched by events, she graduates from Soho strip clubs - and the white slave trade - to Hollywood fame, and of course she confides it all to her diary. Between Us Girls is a revealing early novel by a writer whose controversial works reflect his often scandalous life: essential reading.
'Brilliant comic writing'
John Mortimer
