Literary synopsis *Anna in Hollywood* is Wittig’s surreal journey into the 1930s world of the Bavarian starlet Anna Liszt, who in *Volume 1* moves to Hollywood and lands a role in a film adaptation of a Jane Austen novel. Wittig describes Anna’s adventures with her producer, her co-star Larry, and her sister (also named Anna), in a fluid style that incorporates narrative description, poetry, and historical fantasy.
