Eschewing chronology and organization, Twain simply ..."

"A great set of stories, each one beter than the last. It is hard to beleive it's all true. A super entertaining read and a great insight into a time and a place that I personally find fascinating. I think Anthony Bozza did a great job ghost writing this- it really feels honest, from the hip, and mostly as if it was all Slash's own words.

It's based on the life of Jerry Stahl, the writer of the TV show ALF, who at the time was a hot shot Hollywood writer with a blockbuster sized drug habit. A film about the trappings of fame and success in Tinseltown. Oh, and ALF makes a cameo in his drug fueled hallucinations."
