He would denounce the girl as a hired slut, beat up the raffle sponsor, and trade off the car for five hundred Seconals and a gold-handled cattle prod.”

― Ekaterina Sedia

“Royal Young stands out as heir apparent to the legion of pervily genius literary Jews from early Philip Roth to any-time Jonathan Ames. One doesn't just read Fame Shark - one jumps in and swims through the sea of shame and weirdness and cringey, hysterical, laugh-till-you-pull-a-groin-muscle mania that was young Royal's life. Some books you like, some you enjoy, some you feel the need to command the air waves and scream to the masses that they either have to read this book, immediately, or live artistically stunted lives. This memoir is nothing less than non-stop, on-the-page, guaranteed twist-o-delight. Mister Young's father, himself, merits his own reality show. But Fame Shark is better - and there are no commercials.”
― Jerry Stahl, Permanent Midnight
