“rather disturbing and equally intriguing at the same time.”

Well this book is a picaresque tour of that year filled with as many sexy SF locations as Kemble Scott could fit into one book. Has lots of those people who view sex as sport, which bugs lil' ol' sentimental me, which I guess is the plot. Interesting book for those wrestling with their sexual identity.”
