Qu'est-ce qui fait courir Sammy ?

The novel offers a biting look at ambition and morality in Hollywood. I wonder what the author’s personal experiences or observations influenced this portrayal.

His ambition is so compelling yet morally questionable — did this make others question their own views on success and integrity?

The themes feel surprisingly relevant, but I'm curious whether the author intended this as a timeless critique or a reflection of its era.
