OLDER FICTION
Cheshire, Simon

Plastic Fantastic

(4) YA Trapped in a broken elevator with his all-time favorite female pop star, British teen Dominic's dream-come-true turns into an uncomfortable self-confrontation session when he tells the pop star about himself, and she forces him to realize how clueless he is about love and life. Though contrived, the setup humorously exposes the banality of fandom and how it detracts from more important relationships.
