Be afraid, darling. Be VERY afraid. For the very first time, the collected thoughts about (gay) porn from the one and only Advocate for Fagdom! The notorious cult director and "Reluctant Pornographer" Bruce LaBruce is a well-known key figure of the New Queer Cinema. Starting in the late 80s in Toronto with queer punk fanzines and Super 8 short films, and later entering the international independent movie scene, LaBruce was already writing and taking photographs for magazines such as "Honcho", "Inches", "Exclaim!", "Vice" and many more. This compilation covers the thought-provoking, political, opinionated and cleverly-pointed articles the director has written about pornography. A glorious read - if you aren't afraid of good, old-fashioned obscenity! Includes a conversation between LaBruce and gay porn legend Peter Berlin, numerous essays, articles, stories, and three shooting diaries, for SKIN GANG, THE RASPBERRY REICH and L.A. ZOMBIE. 80 pages of still photography, artworks and Portraits - among them photos by Richard Kern, Raul Hidalgo, Ricardo Gomes, Terry Richardson and others.

As a grade seven student living in an affluent suburb of Vancouver, our unnamed narrator and his closest friend Nettie, are introduced to the exciting world of super-8 filmmaking by a progressive young teacher. Together Nettie and the narrator find in film a means of expressing their somewhat skewed world views. At the age of sixteen the narrator shoots his first adult film, surreptitiously capturing his neighbours having sex. He believes that through representations of sexual activity he can comment on that which he finds both painful and confusing. Nettie, an idealistic poet now away at school, sees in pornography the opportunity to do something artistic, liberating, and socially relevant, and she pushes the narrator to make films that subvert the way the world is constructed. Ultimately, despite his radical intentions, the narrator falls into a world of greed, delusion, and hypocrisy - the same world he once rebelled against.

For almost forty years, Paul Raymond was one Britain's most scandalous celebrities. Best known as the owner of the world famous Raymond Revuebar, he was a successful theatre impresario, property magnate and porn baron. With his pencil moustache, gold jewellery and taste for showgirls, Raymond was both the brash personification of nouveau riche vulgarity and exemplar of the entrepreneurial spirit that enabled a poor boy from Liverpool to become Britain's richest man. 'Like 24 Hour Party People, we want to capture the life of an extraordinary man living in extraordinary times' Steve Coogan

He has worked for some of the most notorious super villains the world has ever known - Doctor Thalassocrat, Victor Soliman, Polonius Crump; Mark was with each of them when they met their makers at the hands of British Secret Service super-spy, Jack Tempest, and lived to tell the tale - if not pay the bills. Still for every hour under gunfire there are weeks and months of sitting around on monorails so Jones starts a book club with his fellow henchmen. It was only meant to pass the time. It was never meant to save the world. From the bestselling author of The Burglar Diaries and the movie Wild Bill.
