{{Reginald3}} lists this as "fiction" as opposed to novel. The summary from the Worldcat record for a variant title states: "'A biography and a novel spin themselves out in alternating chapters... The former...'is less a biography...than ...a profound meditation on...the nature and meaning of fame in late-20th century America' (Boston Globe). The latter, a futuristic fantasy shot through with sly satire, centers on a Beatty-like superstar known only as Eyes, who inhabits an elusive world that reflects on Beatty's own."--from back cover"
