Alan Platt

Former rock critic, award-winning copywriter, club owner and journalist whose work has appeared in Rolling Stone, The Guardian and Playboy. He traveled all over the world and did a lot of foolish things, embarrassing, cringe-worthy things, often in exotic places. Foreign Fool is a series of bumblings abroad, uncensored, unvarnished, confessional, often scandalous and written in a loose, raunchy way but with great style. In other words, this is a book for grown-ups who have been around the block, not always sober or averse to landing in trouble. If this is you, then you'll laugh a lot and quote this very quotable book all over the place.
