I Didn't See The Movie, But ...

... I didn't read the book, either. Not yet, anyway.

The Christmas Tree was written by Julie Salamon, a film critic for The Wall Street Journal. I knew her as the author of The Devil's Candy, her detailed, insider's look at the making of the film version of The Bonfire of the Vanities, generally regarded as one of the biggest Hollywood flops of the last 20 years.

Illustrations in The Christmas Tree are by Jill Weber, who has a nice career going as well!

The book can be found at local bookstores (ask them to order it), or online at Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
