Drinking, Smoking, and Screwing

Monday, July 24 2006 @ 10:13 AM GMT+4

Drinking, Smoking and Screwing, Bob Shacochis, Ed. Despite the title, this anthology is extremely literary. Largely comprised of exerpts, most of the attention's given to screwing, with smoking coming in a close second and drinking far behind. Exerpts from Lolita, the diaries of Anais Nin, Fear of Flying, and other well-known works of scandal. The gem of the collection is Mark Twain's essay on cigars, brand snobbery, and how he came into the world asking for a light. Smoking was never writ better.
