书籍介绍
For Josh Harper, being in show-business means everything he ever wanted - money, fame, a beautiful wife, and a lead role on the London stage. For Stephen C. McQueen, it means a disastrous career playing passers-by and dead people. Stephen is stuck with an unfortunate name, a hopeless agent, a daughter he barely knows, and a job as understudy to Josh Harper, the 12th Sexiest Man in the World. And when Stephen falls in love with Josh's clever, funny wife Nora, things get even more difficult. But might there yet be a way for Stephen to get his Big Break? THE UNDERSTUDY is a scintillating comedy of ambition, celebrity, jealousy and love.

相比Nicholls的其它作品就平淡多了。
‘Just that I’m glad you’re here.’
‘Me too,’ she murmured. ‘I’m glad I’m here too.’
my affection for theatre business knows no bounds~ 有些地方蛮幽默，比如主角和他女儿的相处，比如那只叫Sammy的小松鼠，但由于主角的”怀才不遇“，总体基调还是沉重得透不过气。比起书中牵强附会的艳遇和主角看似大快人心实则人品低劣的报复，我更愿意读到小人物身上闪光的正能量和真正的爱情魔力。世界再现实，梦想也不应被贬低～
