In this highly acclaimed novel, the author of Permanent Midnight channels fallen early-Hollywood star Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle. Fatty tells his own story of success, addiction, and a precipitous fall from grace after being framed for a brutal crime-a national media scandal that set the precedent for those so familiar today.

BOOK REVIEWS
"I, Fatty is all voice, and that voice-wisecracking, shrewd, bawdy, self-deprecating, and rueful-is a tour de force."
