Title: Inauthentic, corny and just plain awful
Review: Poor writing--not least due to its outrageous inauthenticity. Very like the "Go Ask Alice" of the third millenium: a novel purporting to be based on factual, lived experience--in actual fact, a cynical fraud. All of the words here are very, very selfconsciously 'street', preciously explicit, and come off as a third-rate pastiche of a John Irving universe as dreamed by John Rechy. in work like this, it really does matter who's doing the writing. J.T. Leroy is a middle aged woman. That's it. At your own risk, readers.
