'A terrific debut: fresh, original, and surprising' GEORGE SAUNDERS 'Rende's genius for the absurd is underpinned by her great comic timing' DANA SPIOTTA 'Outstanding... shot through with a crystalline wit and mordant surprise' MEGAN KAMALEI KAKIMOTO 'Rende's funny, sweet, stinging voice is made for this moment' JONATHAN DEE This is the story of ten ambitious women - and one male superstar fallen from grace - as they stumble through the delusional pursuit of fame A struggling actress goes method to land the role of High School Junkie Girlfriend. A college freshman gives the world's longest blowjob to a boy whose name she's forgotten. An assistant helping to film celebrity homes develops a taste for kleptomania. And linking them all is Arlo Banks, a hotshot actor facing downfall when he's accused of cannibalism. From the dazzling to the mundane, Sydney Rende's unnerving and darkly funny stories hold a mirror to our obsession with self-image and the idea that we could - someday, somehow - be famous.
