Colors Insulting to Nature: A Novel

Autor Cintra Wilson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 iun 2005
Like any healthy, red-blooded American, young Liza Normal wants to be famous. Like "people will see me and cry" famous. She lacks only talent. . . . Colors Insulting to Nature is a scaldingly hilarious coming-of-age novel, savage on the exterior but with a heart as tender as a marshmallow chick. It is a remarkable comic debut.
This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.
