The Only Girl

A raucous and vividly dishy memoir by the only woman writer on the masthead of Rolling Stone Magazine in the early Seventies. A straight-talking, utterly indiscrete, deliciously shocking story about being in the right place at the right time pretty much all the time. What a hoot!--Bill Buford, journalist and author of Among the Thugs and Heat'Robin has written a frank, witty and loving memoir about growing up in the milieu of the seventies at Rolling Stone. Her honesty and insight brought all those times back, some of RS's wildest and wackiest early days'Jann Wenner, Co-Founder and Publisher of Rolling Stone'Compulsively readable, laugh out loud funny and beautifully crafted. I ate up every word. If you thought they had more fun back then, this book will prove that you were right' Ruth Reichl, bestselling author of My Kitchen Year With irreverent humour and remarkable nerve, Green spills stories of sparring with Dennis Hopper on a film junket in the desert, scandalising fans of David Cassidy and spending a legendary evening on a water bed in Robert F. Kennedy Jr's dorm room. In the seventies, Green was there as Hunter S. Thompson crafted Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and now, with a distinctly gonzo female voice, she reveals her side of that tumultuous time in America.Pulling back the curtain on Rolling Stone magazine in its prime, The Only Girl is a stunning tribute to a bygone era and a publication that defined a generation.
