Eleven-year-old music superstar Jonny Valentine lives in a bubble of packed arenas, luxury suites and screaming fans. Accompanied by his hard-partying, youth-obsessed manager (also his mother), and a bodyguard who is possibly his only friend, Jonny travels America on his sell-out tour, never going anywhere alone, trying to find his absent father, and playing his favourite video game; all whilst contemplating the possibility of returning to school to lead a 'normal' life for a while. The Love Song of Jonny Valentine paints an unrelenting picture of the unglamorous realities of fame, 21st century celebrity culture, and a child living in an all-too-adult world. With wicked insight, Teddy Wayne has crafted one of the most prescient and blackly comic novels of our generation, which lifts the glittering veil over every prince and princess of pop.
