5.0 out of 5 stars The hilarious source material for RENT...
Truly one of the funniest novels I've ever read -- THIS is the source material for the rock musical RENT, much more so than the opera is.

Though there are serious, more emotional...

This refers to the softcover edition. Thank you for any help!

Anyone who loves RENT should read this incredibly contemporary feeling novel about a bunch of selfish, self-involved, self-important artist friends who run roughshod over the rest of the world. Though there are serious, more emotional scenes, much of the novel is laugh-out-loud funny! It's rare that I've enjoyed a novel this much...
