Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

""Sellevision" is brilliant, subversive, and marvelously evil. In this stunningly fresh debut, Augusten Burroughs has redefined the edge. This is "TV Guide" for the morally bereft and spiritually bankrupt. Thank God. I feel queasy I didn't write it."--Suzanne Finnamore, author of "Otherwise Engaged" "A painfully hilarious look at the dark side of consumer capitalism and the perils of third-tier celebrity. Days after reading it, I'm still buoyed by the invigorating malice I encountered on virtually every page. Augusten Burroughs has slam-dunked the zeitgeist."--Robert Rodi, author of "Kept Boy" "Savvy, very entertaining. Is there a funnier combination than fast-moving soap opera and tawdry comedy? Underneath all the lunacy lies a grim truth: the thin line separating grotesque satire and everyday reality has been erased and will never exist again."--Bret Easton Ellis, author of "American Psycho"

Reseña del editor:

Sellevision is America's premier shop-at-home channel - until disaster strikes each of its frighteningly telegenic hosts. Tune in as Peggy Jean Smythe goes from poised, popular personality to pill-popping lush haunted by a stalker; watch handsome Max Andrews accidentally expose himself on the air, branding himself unemployable; see Leigh Bushmoore take her true tales of the casting couch in front of the cameras during family hour. SELLEVISION offers all this - plus Princess Diana Key Fobs, fabulous collectible dolls, Moisture Whik Panties and Diamonelle jewellery. Get in on the buy!
