This latest book of Paolo Coelho is one that is very different from the rest of the pack (I know because I've read all of them and I have them in my collection).
It was a slow read at first but the more I turned its pages, the more
hooked I got. Probably because in my own little way, I have brushed with
the world of glamour and celebrities through the acting bits I did in
theater and TV and I know for a fact how messy, superficial, vain and
shallow people can really get. Many will really try everything they can
to get a piece of the pie... any piece of fame and glory that they can
get their hands on. Most of the time, I detest it. But for Paolo
Coelho's characters in this book, The Superclass, fame and fortune have
become the end all and be all of living.
