Depraved doesn't even begin to describe serial killer, John Robinson.
This book chronicles the DEPRAVED life of serial killer John Robinson. His criminal career entailed embezzlement, fraud, deceit, and murder. Throw into this mixture involvement in kinky S & M sexual activity, and the plot grows more depraved as you read one chapter to the next. This book DOES include court proceedings and sentencing, making it a thorough true-crime story, from start to finish.

Immature But Hillarious
If you've seen the movie, you need to read this book. It varies a good bit from the movie. This book made me laugh again and again.

Entertaining and thought-provoking legal thriller
This is the second "Jaywalker" novel, and I am now thoroughly hooked on the series. In this book, Jaywalker's suspension from practicing law that motivated the first novel in the series is nearing its end, when a not-so-chance encounter with a beautiful blonde lands him a new case: Defending the woman's husband in a DUI charge. Not just any DUI charge, however, but an incident that led to the ...

You won't be able to put it down
An excellent companion to Larson's The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America, this book tells the almost unbelievable life story of 19th century serial killer and kidnapper Herman Mudgett, a.k.a. H.H. Holmes. He actually confessed to 27 murders, but some of the victims turned out to still be alive later. Others have placed the number at 200 plus. ...

Gritty but compelling!
I first saw this book serialized in the UK's `News of the World,' and it did put shivers up my spine, not least because I was at the anti apartheid protest in Glasgow when he tried to bomb it, but also for how he's subsequently been portrayed in the media. On reading the book however, I'm now left slightly unnerved, simply because I feel like I've got to know, and understand, someone who was ...

A must-read for Hunter S. Thompson fans
To sum up Hunter S. Thompson's character, career and lifestyle would be a daunting task, as he was one of our most eccentric well-loved literary figures of the twentieth century. Yet, Jay Cowan pulls it off, fully understanding the gravity of the undertaking in writing a biography for the author of numerous books and articles, including Fear and Loathing: on the Campaign Trail, Fear and Loathing ...

Michael Hemmingson
Jasmine Sailing
, 1995
The title says it all.
This early, slim story collection predates Hemmingson's brilliant "My Dream Date (Rape) with Kathy Acker" by about seven years. Its style and tone differs greatly from the later collection and, for the most part, it's not nearly as graphic. The stories range from noir to satire. The central theme is obsession -- obsession with a fetish, with books, with revenge, with one's own urges. There ...

This is an EXACT reproduction of a book published before 1923. This IS NOT an OCR'd book with strange characters, introduced typographical errors, and jumbled words. This book may have occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process.

I love this book!
I absolutely love this book! I always knew that there were words out there like this, but I never knew where to find them. I love words, and this was the funniest thing that I've read in years. I'm buying copies for everyone that I know for Christmas.

deal with it...
the darkest sides of human nature are not always easy to look at - but there is a value in doing so. and there is a value to those storytellers amongst us who can live inside the heads of characters as venal, narcissistic and evil as these. i loved Indiana's writing. his descriptions of, say, the industrial wastelands of newark, new jersey are downright beautiful, and surprising, drawing ...
Depraved Angels
Masquerade Books, US
, 1992
Depraved Angels might just as well have been titled, "The Adventures of the Sexually Inquisitive Sisters Clara and Iris and Their Well-Endowed Cousin Vivian," but then, the title would have been too long. Set in some of the most beautiful, exotic and erotic areas of Europe, the story opens with the wanton trio recounting past experiences while plotting, and carrying out, new adventures. Depraved Angels is a must read for connoisseurs of erotica.

Tarantino Is Dead. Long Live Zedd
This fascinating memoir has not one scintilla of whining. It is in fact, brilliant, succinct and hilarious in it's depiction of life in the world of underground films and the struggles faced by an uncompromising realist on a mission to demolish the consensus reality of fools. Denounced and ignored by narrow minded bigots, cynical dilletants and academic poseurs, this stunning slice-of-life ...
Depraved
Leo Gallagher
Trafford Publishing
, 2000
This is a true story about a boys' reform school which took place fifty years ago. The author says,"It had to be told as a catharsis for my brain and soul. It is not a tale to make anyone laugh, for it is not pleasant nor is it meant to be. It is the unembellished story of the degradation and immoral tragedy in the life of an innocent boy and the manner in which he was led to his degeneracy."
