[nice tight copy, NO remainder mark, mild shelfwear; jacket is nearly flawless, with just a tiny bit of surface rubbing]. SIGNED boldly by the author on the title page. Comic novel about a pair of hapless twentysomethings who cherish their dreams of Hollywood success, despite being "stranded in a dreary tract house with chain-link fencing, so far from the actual city of Los Angeles that they may as well be on Mars." The author's third book (and first novel), following an autobiographical monologue ("Aliens in America") and an essay collection ("Depth Takes a Holiday"). Signed by Author
