Fiddling Whilst Rome Burns: An Artist's Odyssey Through America

"Fiddling Whilst Rome Burns: An Artist’s Odyssey Through America" is not only a chronicle of an artist's search to understand the forces that shaped him, but also an epic snapshot of the American Century in its twilight years. Full of insights, anecdotes and twisted tales from the front lines of show biz, it is a witty and wickedly scathing tale of the B side of the American Dream. One part "Catch 22" and another "The Gentle Art of Making Enemies", it is a voyage of personal discovery that reveals some larger truths about how America came to be as it is today . . . . and what the future may hold for it tomorrow.
