Reviews

"Marilee Alberts roman a clef, The Tutor, is a charmingly lusty, hilariously funny, page-turner. This first-time novelist is clearly gifted. I cant wait for more."
Jamie Rose, actress, author of Shut Up and Dance!

"If you want to learn what really goes on behind the scenes of a glamorous star-studded Hollywood classic, shot in Rome by a world famous auteur, read Marilee Alberts terrific The Tutor. Its an education in itself on how showbiz works, and you will be very, very surprised.
William Stadiem, author of Marilyn Monroe Confidential, Mr. S, and Jet Set

"The Tutor is an astonishing first novel. Marilee Albert puts us in the shoes of a sexually awakening 21 year-old Yale philosophy major and ferries us from New Haven to Rome, meeting colorful characters along the way. So many trysts and turns, dollops Kant and Heidegger, we even get a peek behind the scenes of an iconic Hollywood mob movie shoot where our heroine tutors a famous director and learns even more in the process. Super smart, super sexya must read!
Dottie Dartland Zicklin, Executice Producer, Younger

"A perfect example of why every woman should start riffing on Heidegger in her stilettos. It cannot fail to enthrall even the most indomitable of men. A must read!"
Lauren Frances, bestselling author of Dating Mating and Manhandling: The Ornithological Guide to Men
