THIS IS A PICTURE OF HARLAN ELLISON
and Rockabilly is a picture of his world. A world populated by The Hungry Ones - the beautiful women and talented guys who leech off one another - and the populace in general - to make their fast buck. It's a universe in which a kid who knows the angles can become a national institution, where talent doesn't count as much as a good press and a C-note under the table. The acetate arena where a long-playing bum can sing gibberish and coin a fortune.
Rockabilly is written in the hip, contemporary manner of a brilliant young writer who will shock and amuse you, and who sees beyond the neon glitter of the image merchant's dreamworld.
THIS IS A GOLD MEDAL BOOK
