Synopsis
In Sanders’s hands, what is usually cliché or gratuitous is hot.” Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls

Lauren Sanders is a novelist and journalist who lives in New York City. Her highly acclaimed debut novel, Kamikaze Lust (Akashic, 2000), won a 2001 Lambda Literary Award. Sanders’s writing has appeared in many publications including the American Book Review, Poets & Writers, and Time Out New York.

From the Publisher
WITH OR WITHOUT YOU combines the aching adolescent heart of The Catcher in the Rye with the dark suburban soul of The Great Gatsby -- set against the starstruck voyeurism of American Idol. This book asks the quintessentially American question: Is life worth living if you can't be famous?
From the Inside Flap
Summer 1987. Lillian Ginger Speck, high-school graduate, sits in her jail cell contemplating the steps and missteps that led her to murder soap opera star Brooke Harrison in cold blood one bright and muggy New York afternoon. Lily had admired the young star for some time, and her loss is palpable. Her story is therefore part apologia, part love note and suicide pact. Meanwhile, Brooke Harrison's mother has a tale of her own to tell. In this edgy and compelling "whydunit," the accounts of predator and victim intertwine. The result is a wry exploration of the contemporary American melting pot of status, beauty, celebrity, violence, and obsession.
