Description
A novel about music written by a musician shows depth that can't be faked.. In Confessions of a Former Rock Queen,author Kirk Bjornsgaard, a rock 'n' roller for almost four decades, expertly chronicles the life of an unsophisticated small-town Oklahoma girl tapped on the shoulder by fame during the '60s. As her star rises and the pressures mount, Bjornsgaard guides us with a steady, knowing hand through Sally Moore's life, its challenges and perks, its wild highs and crashing lows. And behind it all, always, you can hear the soundtrack of her life -- and, indeed, the lives of all the baby boomers who grew up at the same time as Sally did. Those folks will especially appreciate this fine novel, but it will also be enjoyed by anyone who wonders what happens with performers once the microphones have been turned off, the stages and studios have gone dark, and the audiences have gone back home to dream of what it must be like to be a star.
