Junk: The Back Streets Of Bangkok - Paperback

by Scott Shaw (Author)

JUNK: The Back Streets of Bangkok is a gritty first-person tale of pulp literature. This book details the life of a California artist who relocates to Bangkok, Thailand where he is seduced into the seedy underworld of sex and drugs. Part literary fiction, part autobiography, part poetry; this book is not designed for the faint of heart."Scott Shaw takes literature to the next level by intermingling poetry with this blisteringly erotic tale." Publishers Weekly April 11, 1989
