True crime has never been more fun.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen \u003ci\u003eParty Monster \u003c\/i\u003ewas first published, it created a storm of controversy for its startlingly vivid, strikingly fresh, and outrageous depiction of the hedonistic world of the '90s New York City club kids, for whom nothing was too outré--including murder. Nominated for the Edgar Award for best true crime book of the year, it also marked the debut of an audaciously talented writer, James St. James, who himself had been a club kid and close friend and confidant of Michael Alig, the young man convicted of killing the drug dealer known as Angel. This is the inside story of life in clubs like The Tunnel and The Limelight and hanging with leading lights like Keith Haring and RuPaul and the drugs, sex, music, and mayhem that existed during the heyday of New York City club culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James St James\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.50w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780743259828\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames St. James who was once dubbed a celebutante by \u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e magazine, is now a radio personality, an editor and contributor to \u003ci\u003eThe World of Wonder Report\u003c\/i\u003e, and author of \u003ci\u003eParty Monster\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eFreak Show\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"James St James \/ Paperback \/ English","offer_id":47699039584413,"sku":"9780743259828","price":37.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_d9d20096-efd1-43fc-91f4-32b7a493d67f.jpg?v=1772696635","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/party-monster-a-fabulous-but-true-tale-of-murder-in-clubland-9780743259828","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
