As charming as early Nora Ephron, this is the utterly winning, wholly delightful, totally cinematic debut novel of young love, old movies, and an epic search for a long-lost silent film.
New York in the late 1980s. Ceinwen Reilly has just moved from Yazoo City, Mississippi, and sheâs never going back, minimum wage job and shabby apartment be damned. Who cares about earthly matters when Ceinwen can spend her days and her nights at the repertory housesâand most of the time thatâs left trying to look like Jean Harlow? By chance Ceinwen discovers that her downstairs neighbor may haveâjust possiblyâstarred in a forgotten silent film that hasnât been seen for ages. So naturally, itâs time for a quest. She will track down the missing reels, she will impress her neighbor, and she will become a part of movie history: the archivist as ingénue. As she embarks on her grand mission, Ceinwen meets a somewhat bumbling, very charming 100% English math professor named Matthew, who is as rational as she is dreamy. Together, they will or will not discover the missing reels, will or will not fall in love, and will or will not encounter the obsessives that make up the New York silent film nut underworld. A novel as winning and energetic as the grand Hollywood films that inspired it, Missing Reels is an irresistible, alchemical mix of Nora Ephron and David Nicholls that will charm and delightEditions
