Sinopsis

Fabian and ByrneâÇÖs story of 19-year-old Katie and her unswerving commitment to sex, drugs & rock âÇÖnâÇÖ roll now takes its rightful place as a key novel of the Sixties.WhenáGroupieáwas first published in 1969 it caused a sensation. The SwinginâÇÖ Sixties capacity to outrage may have been starting to decline, but this novel managed to shock all over again. A thinly fictionalised chronicle of Jenny FabianâÇÖs adventures with underground rock heroes of her day,áGroupieácaused a furore for all kinds of reasons...It had the scent of danger that accompanies an authentic original...It ruffled feathers with its matter of fact descriptions of drug taking and sexual high jinks...It prompted guessing games about the true identities of its principal characters...Most of all, it was highly explicit about a phenomenon that had never before been documented...Decades later, this book is still extraordinarily fresh and playing the celebrity guessing game is still fun.áGroupieáis also the genuine article - no reconstruction of Sixties underground rock culture has ever captured the Zeitgeist as well as this novel.Includes an introduction by Jonathan Green.
