Book Description
Swappers, singers, transvestites, nymphos, hookers, dominatrixes, lesbians: these subjects were only several of the naughty novels of the 1960s. This lurid, taboo book genre (known to collectors of vintage smut gems as 'sleaze') only went as far as third base' - hardcore pornography only came to play after the mid-70s. Sin-A-Rama explores the long-neglected and often brilliant popcult manifestation, with attention paid to what occurred behind closed doors with the pseudonymous and sometimes jailed authors and artists.'

Ada, or Ardor: A Family Chronicle
Author: Vladimir Nabokov
Publisher: ببلومانيا للنشر والتوزيع
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
Published two weeks after his seventieth birthday, Ada, or Ardor is one of Nabokov's greatest masterpieces, the glorious culmination of his career as a novelist. It tells a love story troubled by incest. But more: it is also at once a fairy tale, epic, philosophical treatise on the nature of time, parody of the history of the novel, and erotic catalogue. Ada, or Ardor is no less than the superb work of an imagination at white heat. This is the first American edition to include the extensive and ingeniously sardonic appendix by the author, written under the anagrammatic pseudonym Vivian Darkbloom.

Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer
Author: Warren St. John
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0609807137
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
What is it about sports that turns otherwise sane people into raving lunatics? Why does winning compel people to tear down goal posts, and losing, to drown themselves in bad keg beer? In short, why do fans care? In search of answers, Warren St. John seeks out the roving community of RVers who follow the Alabama Crimson Tide from game to game. A movable feast of Weber grills and Igloo coolers, these are hard-core football fans who arrive on Wednesday for Saturday’s game: The Reeses, who skipped their own daughter’s wedding because it coincided with a Bama game; Ray Pradat, the Episcopal minister who watches the games on a television beside his altar while performing weddings; and John Ed, the wheeling and dealing ticket scalper whose access to good seats gives him power on par with the governor. In no time at all, St. John buys an RV (a $5,500 beater named The Hawg) and joins the caravan for a full football season, chronicling the world of the extreme fan and learning that in the shadow of the stadium, it can all begin to seem strangely normal. Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer is not only a hilarious travel story, but a cultural anthropology of fans that goes a long way toward demystifying the universal urge to take sides and to win.
