Sophie Stark wasn't born Sophie Stark - that's the person she decided to become. She didn't know that she wanted to become a film director either, but that is what she evolved into as she fought being the one who was different, as she tried to fit in but found that making movies actually drove her away from people. She was a genius when it came to making movies, but genius scythes through other people in pursuit of perfection, leaving disaster casually in its wake and Sophie was no exception to ''that'' rule.
The publishers compare the book to [[Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple]], [[We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves by Karen Joy Fowler]] and [[A Visit From the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan]]. I did wonder if they were tempting fate, but having read the book I think they're spot on.
