Spencer Mazio is an idiot and a genius. A hero and a coward. A star athlete who suffers from debilitating panic. He's a bookie and a brawler, a womanizer and a fool. Last of the Famous International Playboys is his uproarious and heartbreaking story-a young man from a broken family trying to piece himself together from inside the ivy-covered walls of a famous university suffering from its own identity crisis. Spencer tells his story in an irreverent voice that makes us cry out loud for him and laugh out loud with him, but as he confronts the many versions of himself, he wrestles with identity in a world determined to see him as it wants to. He struggles with the painful paradox of relationships and crashes headlong into the boundaries of masculinity. He's one part oblivious, another part contributor, and a third part observer as he tries to make sense of it all. But will he?
