Synopsis
Following up the author's debut novel, SARAH, this linked series of stories depict the world of teenage runaways, hookers, and thieves as they try to survive on the streets of San Francisco. Although the author purported to be a young man born in 1980, who drew heavily upon his own experiences as a drug-addicted, cross-dressing hustler for his autobiographical fiction, the New York Times eventually discovered JT LeRoy's true identity in late 2005. Laura Albert, a musician, writer, and phone sex operator born in 1965, wrote LeRoy's books, while her partner Geoffrey Knoop's half-sister Savannah posed as LeRoy for public appearances. In the midst of the controversy, a film based on the book was released in early 2006.

Publisher's Note
A harrowing, darkly comic collection of short stories follows a young boy on a difficult journey through the bleak, complex landscape of modern American life.

Industry reviews
"Strong, fierce, hard, and frankly astonishing."
Kirkus Reviews  (04/15/2001)

"These accounts stun, but with so few digressions their fury seems almost too neat....Yet the reader must acknowledge that LeRoy's stupidly evil landscape is one the author has inhabited. An eyewitness's imagination burns in his language, which is not lyrical but as vivid as a match held close to the face."
New York Times Book Review - Ann Powers (07/29/2001)

"Not since David Wojnarowicz's memoir CLOSE TO THE KNIVES has a writer depicted a young boy's horrifying existence with such genuine pathos and candor."
