  Tells the story of William Cash's encounters and adventures with the celebrity and cultural high and low life - a foreign correspondent's year in Hollywood. The colourful and idiosyncratic story of a bookish young Englishman's real education through the tacky and popular culture of Los Angeles. As The Times West Coast Correspondent, William Cash danced with Madonna, was jailed by Disneyland at Liz Taylor's 60th birthday, covered the LA riots from the safety of the Playboy mansion - and here launches an assault on the booming cult of celebrity and an irreverent but entertaining exposure of the dark side of the Hollywood star and publicity system.
