Fiction-RATMAN'S NOTEBOOKS by Stephen Gilbert. The film WILLARD is based on this. Takes place in England instead of Los Angeles and Boss name is different, but the film follows quite closely. Written as a journal. Don't like Ratsa , but can't stand the scene where Socrates is discovered, in both the book and the film.
Non-Fiction-LISTEN YOU PENCIL NECKED GEEKS by "Classy" Freddie Blassie with Keith Elliot Greenberg. Blassie AKA "The Vampire" and "The Hollywood Fashion Plate" was one of the classic villains of Professional wrestling from the late '40's up to the mid 70's, before becoming a manager for many WWE "Heels". He seems almost proud of how He was "...the most obnoxious wrestler who ever lived" and indeed He was. But, I always found his interviews to be funny and He led an interesting life, to be sure.
