Non-Fiction Memoir
Hilarious. Smart. Bitter. Sweet. Self-deprecating. Stacey
Grenrock Woods. Experience with her the stirring joys of
receiving a Peter Frampton poster for Hanukkah, sitting for
a head-shot photo session as a child actress, waitressing
Pan-Asian fusion cuisine, having musicians for boyfriends,
humiliating people on The Daily Show, and waiting for
prescription drugs. Oh, the waiting. From the idyllic
sprout-and-yogurt San Fernando seventies; to the idyllic
painter's-cap-and-bandanna eighties; to the idyllic,
heroin-clouded Viper Room nineties; to the idyllic
Botox-infused present, Stacey Grenrock Woods has experienced
a prototypically Southern California life on the margins of
fame, which is roughly the equivalent of a prototypical
American life, isn't it?
