Summary

Weasels In A Box (a not so musical journey through partially truthful situations with eighty percent fictitious dialogue) is a meta-fictional novel that dances dangerously close to the edge of historical pop punk reality. It embodies the confusion felt by a specific pop-punk semi-famous rockstar of the mid 90's from the band Screeching Weasel who questions the importance of his era and ultimately the importance of himself. How does this affect his life today? What fictions was he constantly creating because of his subjectivity and inability to remember accurate conversations and situations? What is Fame and how does it differ from Success?
