L'amant en culottes courtes: roman (Fiction & cie)
Par Alain Fleischer. 2006
"Si ce livre peut être considéré comme un roman, c'est dans la mesure où toute initiation, toute expérience formatrice, entre…
en dialogue avec l'imagination dès le moment vécu, puis dans le souvenir et tout au long de l'existence. Dans ce récit strictement autobiographique, tout l'effort consiste à retrouver et à restituer avec leurs composantes contradictoires les circonstances, l'état d'esprit, les états de corps, les sentiments, les sensations, les pulsions, d'une aventure amoureuse et sexuelle qui est celle de la première fois. Cela se passe à Londres en juillet 1957, alors que l'auteur, âgé de treize ans, séjourne dans une famille pour apprendre la langue anglaise. Pendant quelques jours, cohabitent violemment dans le même être le désir érotique pour une jeune fille de sept ans son aînée, et la volonté farouche de rester un petit garçon en culottes courtes, attaché à son univers d'enfance." -- 4e de couvChameleon: the March madness murders, a novel

club--and the first in the cycle to be published separately in Canada.The young Karl Ove moves to Bergen to attend the Writing Academy. It turns out to be a huge disappointment: he wants so much, knows so little, and achieves nothing. His contemporaries have their manuscripts accepted and make their debuts while he begins to feel the best he can do is to write about literature. With no apparent reason to feel hopeful, he continues his exploration of and love for books and reading. Gradually his writing changes; his relationship with the world around him changes too. This becomes a novel about new, strong friendships and a serious relationship that transforms him until the novel reaches the existential pivotal point: his father dies, Karl Ove makes his debut as a writer and everything disintegrates. He flees to Sweden, to avoid family and friends.And the Midnight Trio

Par Laura Bradley, Jeffrey Michelson. 2012
"There is no such thing as great sex unless you have an apocalyptic moment." * "The difference between writing and…
literature is agreeable style and irony. This book has both." * "Objective, funny, salacious and perversely-dare I say it- uplifting!" NORMAN MAILER "Undeniably brilliant." LEGS McNEIL "Swimming in audacity." DWAYNE RAYMOND LAURA MEETS JEFFREY is a love story, a name-dropping, hilarious, shameless erotic cyclone, a documentary of the excesses, dangers and extreme edges of sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll, and a close-up personal history of sexual liberation's primetime. LAURA MEETS JEFFREY while she's working in an upscale New York City brothel in 1980 and they share an apocalyptic moment. It's love at first orgasm. And so begins their double lives. At dinner parties she's known as a witty lingerie model and jewelry artisan, and a famous film director's ex-lover. He's her media wizard boyfriend, a designer discovered by John Lennon who worked for John & Yoko, Apple Records and the Rolling Stones, and then created Puritan, the world's largest-selling explicit sex magazine. On weekends he boxes with Ryan O'Neal and Jose Torres. In their bedroom, many other rooms, rooftops, hotel elevators and the New York, LA and Miami demimonde of call girls, coke dealers, BDSM, on-premise sex clubs, adult bookstore glory holes, orgies, porn stars, Jerzy Kosinski, Al Goldstein and a horny White House speechwriter or two, Laura and Jeffrey transform into unquenchable libidomaniacs. Norman Mailer considered his famous interview with Jeffrey and Laura on "Ethics and Pornography," excerpted as a bonus chapter in this book, one of the best of the more than 600 he gave in his lifetime. Mailer bequeathed the Foreword and gave guidance to this account of two lovers, who missed none of the wild era just before the door slammed shut on sexual freedom and aren't afraid to reveal all of it.

Introduction by Legs McNeil.The End (My Struggle #6)
Par Karl Knausgaard, Don Bartlett, Martin Aitken. 2018
The sixth and final book in Knausgaard's epic My Struggle cycle--the most talked about literary project of its time. The…
sprawling, intimate, and spectacularly unorthodox literary autobiography that unleashed a media frenzy upon its release in Norway, became a global publishing sensation, and sold millions of copies worldwide, now reaches its climactic conclusion. In My Struggle, Karl Ove Knausgaard examines with ruthless, unsparing rigour his life, his ambitions and frailties, his uncertainties and doubts, and his relationships with friends and exes, his wife and children, his mother and father. It is an opus in which life is described in all its nuances from moments of great drama to the most trivial everyday details. It is also a project that is full of risk, where the borders between private and public worlds cross, not without cost for the author himself and the people portrayed. The End, the sixth and final book, reflects back on the personal fallout from the earlier volumes, with Knausgaard facing growing literary acclaim and the often shattering repercussions that came with it. It is a book about literature itself and its relationship with reality, the capstone on a magnificent achievement. Translated from the Norwegian by superstar literary translators Don Bartlett and Martin Aitken.The Unstable Boys: A Novel
