Joy’s hero can charm landladies, but he can’t wrap up the quickie biography of rock star Liz Phair he’s been commissioned to write. Instead, the shaky author finds himself caught up in recounting the troubled events that mark his own life. His ex-girlfriend, (who just might be the illegitimate daughter of Brian Jones), the rock star (whom he’s never met) and a mystery girl in an old newspaper photo all start to blur together. Hilarious and compelling, ‘The Last Rock Star Book’ offers both an engrossing read and a powerful meditation on celebrity and obsession.
