The Sluts by Dennis Cooper
3.0
Don't you realize what I'm giving you? Brad isn't just some cute, masochistic piece of ass who's here to help a bunch of stupid leather men get their sadistic rocks off. He's a fucking legend. I expect you to show some respect.
I wanted a heavy experience, not to have my life changed forever.
A fucked-up, graphically violent early-aughts Internet novel. I guess it's a mystery novel, but it has more in common with Borges in that the mystery is the nature of truth and identity itself. A genuinely interesting commentary on trust, the Internet, sex, power, fantasy. It's well written and even funny at times, it's just really fucking graphic (not that surprising if you know what you're getting into with ol' Dennis).
