Summary: Give it a break, Sotos!
Comment: At one time shocking and confrontational, Sotos seems content on taking us to the same ol' places in a cut-up, avant garde style. One would have a time coming up with a follow-up after "Total Abuse" and "Pure" magazine, however.
Rating: 3
Summary: Sotos is great, but he's no Bataille
Comment: As a sort of cultural compass that points to a very odd magnetic south, Sotos is fairly without peer. His earlier writings are by nature, more vitriolic; this book shows his matured writing style and personally I find it more disturbing than his former "shock for shock's sake" style. He's also lost some of the irritating "serial killer fanboy" tinge he had. Total Abuse should still be sought out though, to trace the course his writings have taken.
When discussing the gray areas that humanity slips into, Sotos is perfect. I love his work, and though I love him, I see him as being closer to de Sade than to Bataille. Nothing wrong with that, however!
Rating: 4
Summary: Hard to take, harder to forget, impossible to ignore
Comment: It feels weird even trying to review this book, but since no one else has, I thought I'd give it a shot. Sotos is one of a kind and his work is a sexual ground zero; he writes the most disturbing, provocative material (this book, as well as his other ones - TOTAL ABUSE, SPECIAL, and LAZY) about sex and pornography available today. He could be called a misogynist, a racist and a homophobe, except his disdain for humanity in general is so apparent that I'd just call him a misanthrope. As precise and articulate as he is (possibly) insane, Sotos may well be the De Sade or Bataille for the 21st century.
