Candy Everybody Wants Paperback - 2008 - 1st Edition
by Josh Kilmer-Purcell
The author of the "New York Times"-bestselling memoir "I Am Not Myself These Days" is back with his equally uproarious and touching fiction debut. His latest work follows the life of a sensitive young man from the Midwest as he seeks his fame, fortune, and freedom in New York and L.A.
From the rear cover
From the critically acclaimed author of I Am Not Myself These Days comes the very odd adventures of a starry-eyed young man from the Midwest seeking fame and fortune in the flamboyant surreality of New York, Los Angeles . . . and everywhere in between.
Jayson Blocher is tired of worshiping pop culture; he wants to be part of it. So he's off, accompanied by an ever-changing cast of quirky extended family members, on an extremely bumpy journey from rural Wisconsin to a New York escort agency for Broadway chorus boys, to a Hollywood sitcom set. Somewhere out there his destiny awaits--along with the discovery of first love, some unusual coincidences, a kidnapping mystery . . . and the sobering truth that being America's sweetheart can leave a very sour aftertaste.
