A raucous and vividly dishy memoir by the only woman on the masthead of Rolling Stone Magazine in the Sixties. A female Almost Famous.
'A straight-talking, utterly indiscrete, deliciously shocking story about being in the right place at the right time pretty much all the time. What a hoot!' Bill Buford, journalist and author of Among the Thugs and Heat
'A frank, witty and loving memoir . . . brought all those times back, some of Rolling Stone's wildest and wackiest early days' Jann Wenner, Co-Founder and Publisher of Rolling Stone
'A dishy memoir about life as the first woman on the masthead at Rolling Stone magazine during the sex and drugs heyday of the 1970s' New York Times
With irreverent humour and remarkable nerve, Green spills stories of sparring with Dennis Hopper on a film junket in the desert, scandalising fans of David Cassidy and spending a legendary evening on a water bed in Robert F. Kennedy Jr's dorm room: with a distinctly gonzo female voice, she reveals her side of that tumultuous time in America.
Pulling back the curtain on Rolling Stone magazine in its prime, The Only Girl is a stunning tribute to a bygone era and a publication that defined a generation.
[An] entertaining, no-holds-barred memoir . . . She vividly recalls life at the heart of American counterculture, complete with tons of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll
