Right now I am reading a little book called Politics. It is the most entertaining thing that I have picked up in a long while...not one for the uncomfortable with sex talk though because let me tell you...
I'll elaborate. The cover reads "Politics is a novel of sexual etiquette, the Queen Mother, premature ejaculation, the moral life of Milan Kundera, threesomes, the fetishes of dictators, blow jobs, Truffaut's Jules et Jim, breakups, Mandelstam's infidelity, selfishness, Bollywood, shopping & pink fluffy handcuffs."
Too much? Maybe for some, but it is just a perfect summer read.
The author writes in such a unique way; it is different than any other writing style I have encountered. HE IS HILARIOUS. He creates really awkward sex scenes and really interesting characters, and did I mention it's just fantastic? Could be awkward to read around the family, but perfect for your morning commutes. Or right before bed. Or in a class that you happen to be watching the little mermaid in. Or aloud to your innocent 15 year old sister. All these viable options that have worked for me.
He writes such truth that many do not wish to recognize. It is a breath of fresh air. One of his characters is a dedicated actor, and that has been interesting for me to see his viewpoints and lessons along with his girlfriend, who really doesn't understand theatre. I will eat this book up. for sure. the end.
