What an adventure this was!! I feel like I need to justify myself by saying that I'm an English grad student and read this novel for a scholarly paper on pulp fiction but wow. There are so many interesting and unique things going on within this novel outside of the explicit sex. Its use of language and silencing is at once intriguing and masterful. While many of its metaphors are redundant and simplistic there does seem to be something artful going on here. It's definitely a novel worth show more reading for anyone interested in erotic fiction, especially male/male erotica, as well as anyone interested in pre-Stonewall homosexuality in fiction. show less
