It's an entertaining autobiographical memoir of a "successful" porn star. By successful I mean that he was able to reach stardom (and retire happily). In the book he records the deaths of others in the business through accidental drug overdosing or deliberate suicides. He wrote as follows: "Porn stars are always committing suicide, hanging themselves and throwing themselves off tall buildings.....And when they go, boy, they go big time ... suffocating themselves with plastic bags, drinking show more rat poison, it's almost as though they want to be in the headlines just that one last time as they go out with a bang." He managed to avoid that kind of ending, after surviving a rough childhood to go on to success in a rough business. He was lucky to find someone to settle down with and enjoy a post-porn star life. I was saddened to read that he died at a relatively young age of heart problems. show less
