i can't believe
how great
i feel

 

A new long story by writer Amy Prior. The book creatively transforms a trashy inspiration: the tabloid press and bad Hollywood blockbuster movies. 'I Can't Believe How Great I Feel' is especially inspired by extensive, conflicting but supposedly 'true-life' articles about the private lives of several well-known Hollywood actors and actresses - and also (interchangeably) by some of the similar fictional characters they play in Hollywood film.

For a year Amy gathered more than a hundred celebrity magazines, hung out in chain video stores and multiplex cinemas she never normally visited, scanned obsessive film fan sites online. Artist Sarah Doyle made drawings; Amy worked with some of these - and also magazine photos, movie stills and dialogue, small 'true life' details from articles, quotes from interviews - to help her imagine a fictional story. This book is the result: a glamorous 'object d'art' that takes celebrity onto a new level.

'I Can't Believe How Great I Feel' is designed in collaboration with Åbäke and includes drawings by Sarah Doyle.
