Venus Drive
(2000)A collection of stories by
Sam Lipsyte
| "Its wonderfully written and compulsively readable with brilliant and funny dialog, a collection that represents the emergence of a very strong talent." Robert Stone |
| "These are torqued-up, enthusiastically black-hearted stories by a grimly cheerful author. And the damned things are queerly rather loving and lovely as well." Padgett Powell |
From the peep palaces of Times Square to the cubicles of corporate America, Venus Drive takes us away from the toothpaste-white gleam of American life, and leads us down an altogether darker, comic road on the seedy side of town. Pot-dazed revolutionaries, summer-camp sadists, and babysitters with an eye for erotic humiliation all make themselves known in this crafty, streetwise new collection from the acclaimed author of The Subject Steve. At once shocking, inventive and funny, these stories confirm Sam Lipsyte's place amongst the very brightest - and darkest - new talents of American fiction.
