520    In Last Night at the Viper Room, acclaimed author and 
       journalist Gavin Edwards vividly recounts the life and 
       tragic death of acclaimed actor River Phoenix--a teen idol
       on the fast track to Hollywood royalty who died of a drug 
       overdose in front of West Hollywood's storied club, the 
       Viper Room, at the age of 23. Last Night at the Viper Room
       explores the young star's life, including his childhood in
       Venezuela growing up under the aegis of the cultish 
       Children of God. Putting him at the center of a new 
       generation of leading men emerging in the early 1990's--
       including Johnny Depp, Keanu Reeves,  Brad Pitt, Nicolas 
       Cage, and Leonardo DiCaprio--Gavin Edwards traces the 
       Academy Award nominee's meteoric rise, couches him in an 
       examination of the 1990s,  and illuminates his lasting 
       legacy on Hollywood and popular culture itself.
