Bright Shiny Morning

"Dozens of characters pass across the reader's sight lines - some never to be seen again - but author James Frey lingers on a handful of LA's lost souls and captures the dramatic narrative of their lives: a bright, ambitious young Mexican-American woman who allows her future to be undone by a moment of searing humiliation; a supremely narcissistic action-movie star whose passion for the unattainable object of his affection nearly destroys him; a couple, both nineteen years old, who flee their suffocating hometown and struggle to survive on the fringes of the great city; and an aging Venice Beach alcoholic whose life is turned upside down when a meth-addled teenage girl shows up half-dead outside the restroom he calls home."--BOOK JACKET.Frey, James is the author of 'Bright Shiny Morning' with ISBN 9780061573132 and ISBN 0061573132.
