Description

This subversively brilliant, one-of-a-kind
rock autobiography ingeniously styled as a biography, is written by a nameless,
faceless writer hired by an Orwellian entity called "the Corporation"
to capture the essence of Ray Davies, lead singer and songwriter of The Kinks
and one of the greatest rock and rollers of all time. The Kinks front man
reveals his life and times to the young writer, often seemingly passing his
stories directly into the writer's consciousness. Carnaby Street, "Top of
the Pops," the Cavern Club, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who and
other fixtures of the times fade in and out of this compelling narrative. Part
autobiography, part social history, part psychological thriller, this elusive
and daring book exposes rock stardom as the heaven, hell, and purgatory it is.
