WEST OF EDEN: A LIFE IN 21ST CENTURY LOS ANGELES is a bitingly funny riff on Hollywood, Malibu, Topanga Canyon, and LA. David St. John calls it hands-down one of the funniest--and wisest--works about Los Angeles. Rosenthal skewers Scientologists, movie stars, celebrities, and himself. Evelyn McDonnell calls it dry, absurd, and beautiful. Celeste Fremon: Dead eye gossipy and wildly funny. Rosenthal's second book of Magic Journalism, like ARE WE NOT THERE YET?, is philosophical and hilarious.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chuck Rosenthal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e What Books Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/10\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.47d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780984578283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/03\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRosenthal, Chuck:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Chuck Rosenthal is the author of seven published novels: \u003cem\u003eLoop's End (the Loop Trilogy)\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eElena of the Stars\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eJack Kerouac's Avatar Angel: His Last Novel\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eMy Mistress, Humanity\u003c\/em\u003e; and \u003cem\u003eThe Heart of Mars\u003c\/em\u003e.
