New York Times best-selling author Bruce Wagner is also a PEN/Faulkner Award finalist and a notable contributor to the New Yorker and Vanity Fair. With Dead Stars, Wagner delivers uproarious and sharply critical views on the sex- and money-obsessed world of Hollywood through the story of Telma, a 13-year-old girl who's also the world's youngest breast cancer survivor. A regular at pink-tie charity events and private lunches, Telma has come to enjoy her fame-so she's not pleased to learn another young girl is about to break her record.
