"One of the more readable, insightful and entertaining celebrity autobiographies in recent memory -- a tragicomedy that could be turned into its own movie." -- Chicago Sun-Times

There is -- and could only ever be -- one Billy Bob Thornton: actor, musician, Academy Award-winning screenwriter, and accidental Hollywood badass. In The Billy Bob Tapes, he leads us into his Cave Full of Ghosts, spinning colorful tales of his modest (to say the least) Southern upbringing, his bizarre phobias (komodo dragons?), his life, his loves (including his marriage to fellow Oscar winner Angelina Jolie), and, of course, his movie career. Best of all, he's feeding these truly incredible stories and righteous philosophical rants through his close friend, Kinky Friedman -- legendary country music star, bestselling author, would-be politician, and all-around bon vivant. Put these two iconoclasts together and you get a star's story that's actually an insightful pop culture manifesto -- a hybrid offspring of Born Standing Up with Sh*t My Dad Says.

"Mr. Thornton, who grew up in Arkansas, is a gifted storyteller, with an eye for the telling detail and a moving way of blending comedy with tragedy. " -- The New York Times

"Rife with Southern gothicisms, delightfully weird digressions, and the sort of 3 a.m. philosophizing that Flannery O'Connor had to make up." -- Austin Chronicle
