Homage to the Beatles

Poppy Brite's novella Plastic Jesus is her homage to the Beatles and the culture of the 1960's. It is not, however, about the Beatles. Make no mistake there are simalarities but Seth and Peyton are not John and Paul. Brite uses the love story between the two founders of the group to explore issues of prejudice and acceptance.Peyton grows as a character by reflecting on his life as a member of the most important rock group of the decade. In doing so he must also reflect upon his life in general, the issues of fame, and finally his ability to go on after a startling tragedy.

This is not profound reading but the book makes some interesting points. - an Amazon customer review
