The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

[tothemaxi]

all the quotes i wrote down from "the seven husbands of evelyn hugo"

“she's beautiful, and she's rich, and she's powerful, and sexual and charming. and i'm a normal human being. somehow i must convince myself that she and i are on equal footing, or this is never going to work.”

“everyone's dying, sweetheart. you're dying, im dying, that guy is dying.”

“i don't regret many of the lies i told or the people i hurt. i'm ok with the fact that sometimes doing the right thing gets ugly. and also, i have compassion for myself. i trust myself.”

“make them pay you what they would pay a white man.”

“do yourself a favor and learn how to grab life by the balls, dear.”

“oh, i know the whole world prefers a woman who doesn't know her power, but im sick of all that.”

“the world doesn't give things, you take things.”

“i love you too much to let you live only for me.”

“because i don't want to be meant for someone like you.”

“‘you love me?’

‘oh, my god, what an understatement,’”

“if there are all different types of soul mates, then you are one of mine.”

“she's such a spectacular woman—by which i mean she, herself, is a spectacle. but she's also deeply, deeply human.”

“i was neither angry nor flattered. i simply didn't care. it cost so much, caring. i didn't have any currency to spend on it. instead, i walked away.”

“i kissed her forehead like she was my baby again because she was forever my baby.”

“i broke like i have never broken before. the devastating luxury of panic overtook me. and it has never left.”

“nobody deserves anything, it's simply a matter of who's willing to go and take it for themselves.”

“my hate is not uncomplicated.”

“she is painfully human to me now.”

“a star is always and forever a star.”

“and it occurs to me that it is the very thing that made her that will be the thing to finally take her down.”

“we just really liked each other.”

“knowing there are all different types of great loves out there, is enough for me now.”

“he was my best friend.”

“even though it is too early yet, i will, one day, forgive her.”

“you do not know how fast you have been running, how hard you have been working, how truly exhausted you are, until somewhat stands behind you and says, 'it’s ok, you can fall down now. i'll catch you'."

"I'm under absolutely no obligation to make sense to you."

Cheryl Crane- An Important Parallel to Evelyn Hugo

(Cheryl Crane and her mother Lana Turner, accessed from IMDB)

I recently finished The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins-Reid. It is a 5/5 and I highly recommend reading it if you haven't yet. I'm in a book hangover from it, and naturally that means I'm readings anything online I can find about it.

I'm not sure this has been stated anywhere, but as far as I'm aware TJR hasn't directly named her, but I think her story is very relevant and has some interesting parallels to the story. Obviously, as with Elizabeth Taylor and Rita Hayworth, there are many differences between them and the characters the book presented, but I think she's worth acknowledging.

Cheryl Crane (CC initials is also interesting, could be coincidental, Connor Cameron?) was the sole child of Lana Turner, who was a Hollywood it-girl that many lauded as a sex-symbol that was remarkable for her acting abilities (this could be compared to Celia's image which contrasted Evelyn or Ruby). Turner had also had 7 marriages, and Cheryl was born during her marriage to Stephen Crane. They divorced quickly, and Cheryl was raised in LA, where she was "famous at birth and pampered silly" (Connor had a similar upbringing).

When she was 14, Cheryl stabbed her mother's lover to death while defending her from his domestic abuse. She was found to be justified in the act of self-defense, but faced a lot of media attention that only compounded with the trauma she had undergone. In my mind, this is reflected in both Evelyn's own childhood with her father and in how Connor is always under the public eye, so when she acts out in her early teens, it isn't private but something published on front covers.

Most importantly, in my opinion, is Cheryl's identity and memoir. She fell in love with a model named Joyce LeRoy, and revealed her identity publicly in a memoir in 1988. Joyce was her one true love, finally marrying in 2014 (which could have reflected the changing social acceptance of queer people, and it had only been legalized in 2013 in California where they resided). In some articles, they refer to Joyce with the nickname "Josh". I'm unable to find anywhere that elaborates, but this could be a pseudonym like 'Edward' that allowed them to more covertly communicate. Cheryl actually ended up being diagnose with Breast Cancer, which she recovered from and is living quite a quiet life. Much of the information we have is from ghost-written memoirs from 1988 and 2011 (the second focused on her mother and published after her death).

When Cheryl had told her mother the plan to write about her identity and relationship (she had already come out to her at 13, which initially shocked her mother but she quickly came to understand it), Lana Turner had expressed concern over what kinds of social stigma it would open them up to (Lana seemed to be, first and foremost, concerned with protecting the people she loved similarly to Evelyn. She didn't care about her daughter being a Lesbian, but what the world would do because of it). Lana stated that Cheryl's partner, Joyce, felt like a second daughter to her.

Later, when Cheryl was publishing mystery novels, many of her interviews remind me of the way Hugo would answer. When asked if she wished she was just Cheryl Crane and not The Cheryl Crane, she said she wouldn't change a thing, that she loved her mother. When asked about her mother's legacy mainly being the scandals she was involved in, Cheryl said that this wild life has kept her image alive when so many were forgotten.
