Product Description

Product Description

The story of how Savannah Knoop led the bizarre double life of cult author JT LeRoy for six years. Tradinga precarious life as a college drop-out for a life in which she was embraced by celebrities and artists, it is no wonder she kept it up so long. As Savannah and Laura Albert, Knoop's sister-in-law who authored the JT LeRoy books, struggled over control of the character, Savannah realised the game, and her deception, was over. Telling her side of the saga for the very first time, Girl Boy Girl finally sheds light on one of contemporary literature's strangest episodes.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad..., 11 Mar 2009
By T-bas (London) - See all my reviews
This is an excellent story, but it does rather assume you know the background of JT LeRoy already. It ended a bit abruptly, too.
