Although James Frey has already sold a billion copies of A Million Little Pieces thanks to Oprah, after today’s interview, James Frey will sell a trillion more of both A Million Little Pieces and My Friend Leonard. Everybody in the office wants to read it now, even me.

Not that it has very far to rise, but it’ll be interesting to see how its’ rankings fare.

I think James Frey is a pioneer. He’s inventing an entirely new genre: revisionist history.
I think I will write a revisionist history of my own, but instead of being the junkie, I will be the pusher, and instead of puking, I will pimp.
Revisionist history is nothing new – check out Bill Clinton’s memoirs.
