You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine - by Alexandra Kleeman (Paperback)

The missing-person mystery, exorcism of modern culture, and singular vision of contemporary womanhood come together in this unforgettable debut novel.

A (the letter, not the person) is a captivating protagonist who eats (or doesn't), watches endless amounts of television, and models herself on a standard of beauty that only exists in advertising.

As she fixates on the fifteen minutes of fame earned by a news-celebrity named Michael, B attempts to make herself a twin of A, who hungers for something to give meaning to her life aside from C's pornography addiction.

Meanwhile, a new religion spread throughout a web of corporate franchises moves B closer to the decoys that populate her television world but no closer to her true nature.

This is a must-read for fans of The Crying of Lot 49, White Noise, and City of Glass, as well as anyone looking for a thought-provoking and entertaining novel about modern culture and womanhood.
