The Cine Star Salon
Philippine-born Vancouverite
Sophia is most grateful for two things: her modest hair salon and Adrian,
her mild-mannered fiancé. She is eager to get married, move away from her
highly educated but career-frustrated parents, who believe that
their daughter can be so much more than
a beautician.Then Sophia's estranged friend
reaches out from Manila, desperate for help. After a dubious accident, her
fiery Auntie Rosy is on the verge of losing the Cine Star Salon-the place
where Sophia first felt the call to become a hairstylist and salon
owner. Coming to her auntie's aid is not so easy though. Sophia worries
helping might reopen old wounds and threaten the bright future she has
planned.Leah Ranada's debut novel is a graphic and
engaging depiction of the importance of women's work and the loyalties that
connect friends across oceans. The Cine Star
Salon marks the entry of a vital new voice in
Canadian literature.
