Day of the locust

Day of the locust
Aurhor from America known as Nathanael West wrote a story about a man in Hollywood that gets the true experience of life. The main character’s name is Tod Hackett who is an costume designer in Hollywood. He encounters many people in this novel like this girl he falls in love with named Fay Greener. He also meets a man named Homer Simpson  who is a business man that gets used and taken advantage of during the story. There is also a Mexican who fights chickens and is has a lot of personality for his character. Another top character would be a cowboy double that has a nice place in known part in Hollywood. The Mexican was the sidekick to the cowboy. To me this is a bunch of unordinary people from hollywood that lives crash because of life experiences and create a life scenerio style plot for this novel. This unordinary novel ends in a disaster riot at the first showing of the movie at its premiere.
