Gore Vidal: Hollywood

I have been told that Gore Vidal could write a novel in as little as two hours.  I can’t even talk that fast.  I recently started reading Gore Vidal’s novel, Hollywood. As usual, it has the off-handed Vidal observations about life’s effects on people.  So far, it is a good read. And I’ve learned that Eleanor Roosevelt became Eleanor Roosevelt Roosevelt upon marrying Franklin. Her marriage to Franklin caused people to confuse her with the “bad Roosevelts” when she had been born to the good Roosevelts.
