This is the story of ten ambitious women - and one male superstar fallen from grace - as they stumble through the delusional pursuit of fame

A struggling actress goes method to land the role of High School Junkie Girlfriend.
A college freshman gives the world's longest blowjob to a boy whose name she's forgotten.
An assistant helping to film celebrity homes develops a taste for kleptomania.
And linking them all is Arlo Banks, a hotshot actor facing downfall when he's accused of cannibalism.

From the dazzling to the mundane, Sydney Rende's unnerving and darkly funny stories hold a mirror to our obsession with self-image and the idea that we could - someday, somehow - be famous.
