Description

Author published popular Rozek's newsletter in 1990s, which was called "antimedia media" by Wired and featured in The Wall Street Journal, The Christian Science Monitor and on NPR's "Talk of the Nation."

Focus on dialogue to tell Lynzsea's story makes for easy reading. Reader is a fly on the wall listening to a twentysomething college student.

raises a lot of questions about drugs, divorce, the education system, sexuality, and thus makes an excellent selection for book clubs.

Rozek is a dynamic speaker. Probably a good target for RTIR.

Parents of teens and young adults will be drawn to this unadulterated portrait of a young American woman.

The new form -- not just transcription, different from Studs Terkel -- should be of interest to journalism students.
