My life in books

Boy in the Middle – Patrick Califia

I’m very picky about my porn. I prefer stories to pictures, but they have to be well-written, with interesting characters and scenarios. I like my porn kinky, and I don’t much care what genders are involved, as long as the story draws me in rather than leaves me outside looking.

Patrick Califia’s work does all that for me. Califia’s own sexual journey has given him a broad perspective on genders, orientations, kink, leather, all the delicious flavours and smells, touches, sights and sounds of desire, and you’ll find all of them in the stories collected in Boy in the Middle. As Califia says in the introduction to this feast of pansexuality:

So here is a book that celebrates several forms of passion. It is diverse, perverse, and bold. Not all of the sex within these pages is same-sex, but it is all queer.

If this sounds like your cup of tea, then I can promise you hours of reading pleasure.
