Motels of Burning Madness
Literary renegade John-Ivan Palmer worked through several male dance agencies to research this satire of strange romance. Huey Dubois, the Hollywood gigolo, can't say no to a deep obsession for older women. Party girls and jealous husbands clash with hairy male strippers, cross-dressers, and a rich heiress, leading to a final showdown where Huey bares more than just his body. The novel transcends its cast of bizarre characters caught up in their gender circus and becomes a deft dissection of desire itself.
