About this product
Product Information
**DEBUT FICTION** This spectacular, sprawling debut novel tells the story of Calliope Bird Morath, daughter of legendary punk-rock star Brandt Morath--whose horrific suicide devastated the world--and his notorious wife, Penelope. The novel is narrated by both Calliope and her obsessive biographer, who follows her from her silent childhood to her first tortured, manic public statements about her father; from her highly publicized publication of a book of poetry to her mysterious disappearance; from her reappearance as the mute leader of a cultlike brigade known as The Muse to her spectacular showdown with the biographer. A disturbing and razor-sharp meditation on twenty-first-century celebrity culture, "Lady Lazarus" is also a funny and moving story about the age-old question of the nature of the self.

Nimble prose and an ironic but not smart-alecky stance keep this story moving along nicely... a promising start., Lady Lazarus is a brilliant examination of the cultural pull exerted by the famous and the dead. Many ghosts haunt the pages of this gripping novel. It casts over the reader that same spell cast by the real-life stories of the talented and the doomed.
