Da Capo Best Music Writing 2005: The Year's Finest… af JT LeRoy
The articles on john peel, bob dylan, and sexism in emo were the stand-outs for me.
I feel like a hypocrite for not really caring that J.T. LeRoy was a hoax and the author was some middle-aged woman with some very probable mental health issues since I am so against books like 'Go Ask Alice' and 'The Amityville Horror' that operate on the same premise.
But, I really was compelled by the psychological portrait drawn in these stories, sad and twisted at it might be. I can't remember the woman's name, but she is a decent writer and she has to be given some kudos for pulling off a hoax like that in this heavy information age.… (mere)

Scandal aside, it seems like this book's only point is to attempt to shock the reader
God, what a good book! You know the type, you really want to get to the end but when its over you wish there was more to come? Sarah is that type of book. What a great story, I mean the writing was very good too, but the story had me sucked right in. Its about a young boy who dresses up as a girl to work as a truck-stop whore, apparently loosely biographical. I'm dying to read The Heart is Deceitful Above all Things now, but I'm trying to pace myself!
