About this product
Product Information
A thinly-veiled autobiographical coming of age story, written against the backdrop of the first rush of Punk Rock in Los Angeles and Hollywood, this narrative steps into the West Coast Punk rock scene of 1976-1982, a fervent creative period in experimentation in rock music and concept. Long before Prozac, Paxil, and Wellbutrin were used to chemically lobotomize the population, California teenagers and young adults turned to BLACK FLAG, X, GERMS, FLIPPER, SOCIAL DISTORTION, RAMONES, and the CIRCLE JERKS to moderate their social anxieties and alleviate family conflicts. Here’s that story...

"Caen gets down to business. What keeps him in the game is his style -- dry and blunt, with steady momentum and a penchant for metaphor that flirts with silliness while rarely slopping over. And as a storyteller, he lays out just enough details -- the size of the ass, the condition of the paint, the greasiness of the jeans -- to make a situation live while he cruises through the uncluttered action of a seduction, a bust or a fix fest. Then on to the next, the next and the next. Story? A fucked-up guy gets more and more fucked-up till he hits a hallucinatory apotheosis. Not a plot, really; a life. Boring it ain't."-GREG BURK,LA Weekly Book Review, Sub-Hollywoodis the work of punk literature that many of us have long been awaiting. Punk was the brilliant sound and account of things falling apart, but its effect has been hard to replicate in writing, since writing lacks the force and rage of sound. BRUCE CAEN makes up for that-indeed, matches the effect-with a sustained narrative that makes that time and sensibility run deeper.Sub-Hollywoodis the story of a man who has nothing, is without direction, searching for something. For a time, he finds a way, through art and the Los Angeles punk culture of the late 197s and early 1980s. His passage makes for a riveting and hilarious tale, but also one that comes to trouble and madness. It moves to a shocking conclusion that is perhaps the most remarkable mating of dissolution and redemption that I've ever read.” -MIKAL GILMORERolling Stone|9780977157105|
