I Am

What do Richard Simmons, Vanilla Ice, George H.W. Bush, Corey Feldman, Evel Knieval, and Darth Vader have in common? Isolation. Faded stardom. And Ben Tanzer.

Tanzer, who Scott McClanahan dubbed the "High Priest of Pop," is back with an invigorating new story collection which pays homage to the pop culture figures he loves. You may have Wikipedia on standby, but you won't want to put down the book to use it.
