In Bitch Goddess, Robert Rodi turns his riotous wit on Hollywood sex and stardom. Told entirely through interviews, e-mails, fan magazine puff pieces, film reviews, shooting scripts, greeting cards, extortion notes, and court depositions, this is a hilarious account of the on-again, off-again career of Viola Chute, the B-grade sex symbol who slept her way to the middle-and slid downward from there. After making a big comeback on a nighttime soap, Viola decides it’s time to pen her memoirs. But when E. Manfred Harry, her ghostwriter, turns up some serious dirt, the bitch goddess fires him. The ever-resourceful Harry turns the book into an unauthorized tell-all biography, and Viola’s star once again begins its descent… Will she be asked back for a second season? Will she make Celebrity Magazine’s “Best-Dressed” list again this year? Will her agent ever return her calls? Praise for Robert Rodi: “Rodi whips action around faster than Julia Child working up a souffle.” (The Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel) “Irrestibly funny!” (Quentin Crisp)
