About the book
"A rambling, erotic collection of experiences and sense-impressions, written with the free hand of a man who has lived each part of his life to the fullest, unaware and unconcerned with the limits of a cautious experience-- a scabrous and scatalogical vision of life and love in the underground world of sex, drugs, and crime." --
