books by Michael Hemmingson     books:       The Classics Professor: Create Your Own Erotic Fantasy (Create Your Own Erotic Fantasy)4 reviews Michael Hemmington, Mary Anne Mohanraj, 2003 Designed for rereading Like Kathryn in the City, this is an adult Choose-Your-Own-Adventure. Reading it, you wonder that it took so long for someone to make this, the concept fits light erotica very well. The story is about a new professor in a new city, with many different diversions and options along the way. The writing is fun, the choices diverse, and erotica good. And of course, you can always pick it up again ...             My Dream Date (Rape) with Kathy Acker3 reviews Michael Hemmingson Eraserhead Press, 2002 A very very weird collection of "out there" fiction I came across this book doing a search of Kathy Acker's books, figured I might buy it. I thought maybe it was a memoir. The title story is a short-short about a dream the author has of winning a date with Acker in a contest sponsored by Grove Press. There's another weird Barbie doll story, and a long and dark story called "Crack Hotel" that scared me, and made me quite sad. This was a very cool ...             The Mammoth Book of Legal Thrillers6 reviews Running Press, 2001 Curl up with this one! If you enjoy the short story format, this one is a great read. With both offerings from authors you know, and excellent stories from newcomers, this book kept me turning pages. The writing is top-notch and the stories engrossing.             BADASS HORROR8 reviews Gerard Brennan, Garry Kilworth, ... Dybbuk Press, LLC, 2006 Delicious Horror Sporting a dark, powerful cover and delicious illustrations that shed a menacing light on the corresponding text, the seven stories featured here, by writers hailing from Maryland, California, Ireland and Holland, among other places, oscillate between the brutal and the sensitive, earthly violence and fantastic gore, moronic mafia men and funny zombies. A follow-up to Teddy Bear Cannibal ...             Sin-A-Rama: Sleaze Sex Paperbacks of the Sixties7 reviews Feral House, 2004 Try And Find them at a reasonable price 287 pages which include hundreds and hundreds of cover scans,A four page listing of pseudonyms and a comprehensive history of these books The authors, the artists and the publishers.

One of the most wandering books, considering it starts with a gimmick that they never conclude, and the title character is only in, say, 30% of the book. Almost the whole book focuses on her boyfriend. I guess they couldn't put a sexy girl on the cover if they named it after him.             William T. Vollmann: A Critical Study and Seven Interviews1 review Michael Hemmingson McFarland, 2009 Best of its kind Really informative, well-researched, plenty of insight.

There are many fine examples of this form inside this nifty chunk of a book.             Expelled from Eden: A William T. Vollmann Reader1 review William T. Vollmann, Larry McCaffery, ... Thunder's Mouth Press, 2004 Vollmann 101 The extraordinary range of writing here by Vollmann, himself an extraordinarily prolific writer, is a great window into the man's literary ambition and accomplishment. From poetry (just one), photos, essays, letters to editors and publishing houses, short stories, interviews...his calm intelligence and blazen sincerity shine in this collection I recommend for the uninitiated. Then move on to ...             The Dirty Realism Duo: Charles Bukowski & Raymond Carver Michael Hemmingson Borgo Press, 2008 CHARLES BUKOWSKI & RAYMOND CARVER Charles Bukowski and Raymond Carver were credited as the fathers of the "Dirty Realism" genre in the 1980s?branching out from minimalism, the stripping of fiction down to the least amount of words and a concentration on the subject's view of the object. The characters are usually run-of-the-mill, every day people?the lower and middle class worker, the unemployed, the alcoholic, the beaten-down-by-life. ...             Auto/Ethnographies: Sex and Death and Symbolic Interaction in the Eighth Moment of Qualitative Inquiry: Seven ... Michael Hemmingson Borgo Press, 2009 AUTO/ETHNOGRAPHIES Auto/ethnography is a quickly growing and popular sub-field of research in sociology, anthropology, communications, psychology, and health sciences. It is the examination of the self in culture, a "new" branch of memoir and auto/biography that takes the sociological imagination one step further into the postmodern use of the meta-narrative. It is a passionate blend of the "mystory" with academic discourse. Hemmingson ...             Wild Turkey10 reviews Michael Hemmingson Forge, 2001 A page Turner!

You can easily breeze thriugh this novel -- or series of short-short stories that are interlinked by various recurring characters -- in one sitting, and get to the last page...satisfied.             Pictures of Houses with Water Damage Michael Hemmingson Black Lawrence Press, 2010 Michael Hemmingson has been called "Raymond Carver on acid" by literary guru Larry McCaffery and "a disciple of a quick and dirty literature" by the American Book Review . Hemmingson writes from within the everyday man's murky nightmares, offering hints and then, dazzlingly, reneging on his hints.             Star Trek: A Post-Structural Critique of the Original Series Michael Hemmingson Borgo Press, 2009 Well-known writer Michael Hemmingson offers a history and critique of the original Star Trek TV series, and the impact it has had on our culture, language, and science.

Kelly O'Rourke, an editorial assistant at a large publishing house, has filed a lawsuit against the conglomerate's best-selling author after a questionable night on a yacht. As her lawyer soon finds out, Kelly isn't quite as innocent as she seems. A sordid history of sexual deviance and BDSM may not be limited to her past.             The Garden of Love1 review Michael Hemmingson Running Press, 2004 Three short novels by Michael Hemmingson One of the most surprising things I discovered after reading "My Dream Date (Rape) With Kathy Acker" was that Michael Hemmingson was a well-known erotica writer. I found this amazing because the sex in that book was decidedly un-erotic. The first novel here, "The Comfort of Women," is nothing more than a long "Penthouse Forum" letter. There's almost no plot or purpose -- it is one sex scene ...             The Fellowship of Amorous Gentlemen: Erotic Victorian Encounters Michael Hemmingson Borgo Press, 2009 The Fellowship of Amorous Gentlemen was a group of upperclass men-about-town who swash- and buckled their way through every eligible young female in 19th-century London. Among their members were Phileas Fogg, Allan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, and the Great Detective himself. Classic Victorian erotica.             What the Fuck: The Avant-Porn Anthology3 reviews Michael Hemmingson, William T. Vollmann Soft Skull Press, 2000 A Weird and Wild Book I love the cover. I love the preface, wherein Larry McCaffery says he found Hemmingson, the editor, after an alien abduction, and this whole book is written by kinky alien life forms. There's a lot of weird and quirky stories in here. This is probably one of the best "erotica" anthologies I've come across in along time, as all the stories take a fresh look at the form. Highly recommended.             The Case of the Absent College Girl1 review Michael Hemmingson Running Press, 2003 Okay, but not the best... ...of Hemmingson's books.
