""Dead Stars" is the "London Fields" of Los Angeles, the "Ulysses"
of TMZ culture--an immensely literate, fearsomely interior novel
about people who are neither." --Tom Bissell, "GQ "
At age thirteen, Telma is famous as the world's youngest breast
cancer survivor until threatened with obscurity by a four-year-old
who's just undergone a mastectomy.... Reeyonna believes that
auditioning for pregnant teenage porn will help fulfill her dream
of befriending Kanye West.... Jackie, a photographer once
celebrated for arty nudes of her young daughter, is working at a
Sears Family Portrait boutique.... And Oscar-winning Michael
Douglas searches for meaning while his wife, Catherine, guest-stars
on "Glee."
Moving forward with the inexorable force of a tsunami, "Dead
Stars" is Bruce Wagner's most lavish and remarkable translation yet
of the national zeitgeist: post-privacy porn culture, a
Kardashianworld of rapid-cycling, disposable narrative where
reality-show triumph is the new American narcotic.
