Seven by Stan (English Edition)

Written by a white-trash gay kid who, against the odds, becomes a television ecostar, Stan’s stories trace his rise to fame and fortune. In the process, we encounter rats,cockroaches,wolves, spiders, at least one extraterrestrial, and a very large anaconda, as well as a variety of unpleasant humans and a few nice ones. From the experiences of a sexually inquisitive teenager in 1960s Florida through his life first as a graduate student in Indiana and then as a professor in Minnesota, culminating in his apotheosis as a television icon, Stan may not always be a model of virtue, but he manages a few good moments, and it is difficult not to appreciate the energy and daring he uses to achieve his ends.
