The Next Great Rock and Roll Novel On a September afternoon in Santa Barbara, a private jet carrying the members of Poor Ghost--one of America's most storied rock bands--plunges into the backyard of Caleb Crane, a retired insurance salesman. Still mourning his wife's death from Covid, Caleb finds himself navigating trauma, grief, and loss, all while his quiet neighborhood is invaded by pushy reporters and rabid Poor Ghost fans.
For fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid's Daisy Jones & the Six and its fictional documentary structure, Poor Ghost moves back and forth between the impact of the plane crash on Caleb's life and an oral history of Poor Ghost--from its beginnings as a working-class punk band to rock icons. As the twisting and turning strands of the plot converge, readers are shown what happens when different worlds (literally) collide with one another, and how we view, negotiate, argue with, and aid those who are unlike us.
