Book ID/图书代码： 11650018C00005

English Summary/英文概要： Entertainment shows, magazines, websites, and other channels continuously report the latest sightings, heartbreaks, and triumphs of the famous to a seemingly insatiable public. Millions of people go to enormous lengths to achieve Fame. Fame is woven into our lives in ways that may have been unimaginable in years past. And yet, is Fame even real? Contrary to tangible realities, Fame is one of those ’realities’ that we, as a society, have made. Why? What is it about Fame that drives us to spend so much time, money, and focus to create the framework that maintains its health? Mining decades of experience, writer, director, producer, and actress Justine Bateman writes a visceral, intimate look at the experience of Fame. Combining the internal reality-shift of the famous, theories on the publics behaviour at each stage of a famous person’s career, and the experiences of other famous performers, Bateman takes the reader inside and outside the emotions of Fame. The book includes twenty-four color photographs to highlight her analysis.

Awards/获奖情况：“本书对明星地位以及臭名昭著进行了审视，是一部生动、尖锐、有力的作品。——Jerry O’Connell，演员

“Justine Bateman的新书《名利》非常引人入胜。以非常原始，具有爆炸性的坦诚态度探讨了“成名”的实质——它是什么、该做什么、方法又有哪些；它荒谬的重力，以及它所引起的无数公众、个人和私人的扭曲。本书是对成名的有力的解读。”——Jon Cryer，演员、作家

“作者把个人的早期经历与社会学家的眼光结合起来，探讨了是什么让美国人如此着迷于名人，并以一种轻快的风格传递给读者，令读者感觉正和她一起走在红毯上。”——Rachel Dratch，作家，著有《女孩们走进酒吧》

"A raw look into stardom and how notoriety got to now with a style that would make Bukowski proud. Justine gives us a vivid, sharp and forceful read." --Jerry O’Connell, actor

"Justine Bateman’s new book Fame grabs you by the lapels. A raw, raging blast of honesty aimed squarely at what ’being famous’ is, does, and means; the absurd gravity of it, and the myriad public, personal, and private distortions it precipitates. This is a bracing read." --Jon Cryer, actor and author of So That Happened

"Bateman mixes personal stories of the hazards of experiencing fame at an early age with a sociologist’s eye for what makes Americans so fascinated with celebrity, and delivers it all in a rat-a-tat style that makes you feel like you are right there with her on the red carpet." --Rachel Dratch, author of Girl Walks into a Bar

"I met Justine Bateman in 1988, when she was one of the most famous women in the world. For over three decades we have walked through this life together. Fame is a socio-pop-culture front-line must-read, told by one of the funniest, most powerful and elevated women I have ever met in my life."--Kelly Cutrone, fashion publicist, author of If You Have to Cry, Go Outside
