by SLJ
Nov 14, 2014 | Filed in Reviews+
Already a star of the New York City art and nightlife scene, teen prodigy Addison was the envy of many—but now she’s dead. Told entirely from diary entries, interviews, photos, newspaper clippings, emails, and reproductions of the boundary-pushing artist’s work, this faux memoir defies convention and will have readers contemplating genius, longevity, and the cost of fame and questioning whether Addison’s death was really an accident.
