“This isn’t just the best oral history since co-author Legs McNeil’s punk opus,
Please Kill Me
. It’s the best one since Jean Stein and George Plimpton’s
Edie
.”
—Seattle Weekly
“Always compelling…the definitive collection of porn’s multifarious legends, myths and true stories.”
—NYLON Magazine
“Exhaustive and immensely informative. A smorgasbord of war stories—some funny, some wistful, many sleazy, many tragic, but all intriguing.”
—LA Weekly
“Titillating, funny, appalling…The book dishes the dirt and zeitgeist in roughly equal portions, with hilarious and devastating observations.”
—Village Voice
“Eloquent and sleazy.”
—Entertainment Weekly
“
The Other Hollywood
will probably be recognized as the definitive work on its subject.”
—Salon.com
“This compulsively readable book perfectly captures the pop culture zeitgeist…. Beyond the scintillating subject, it’s McNeil’s skillful technique that elevates this oral history…. Whether recounting high-profile scandals or answering trivia about the origins of porn films and lap dancing, this is a relentlessly gripping read.”
—Publishers Weekly,
starred review
“A satisfying overview of an American cultural staple.”
—Booklist,
starred review
“This is an easy book to pick up—even at 600-plus pages—and a hard one to put down. It’s a milestone—there’s nothing like it in its thoroughness and range—and very few history books are as entertaining.”
—Adult Video News
“One of the most compelling looks at the marginal facet of art—pornography—and its history, its players and its tragedies.”
—New City Chicago
“Smooth readin’, gossip revealin’, high-art smut for the ages.”
—New Haven Advocate
“It’s got dirt from the days of Bunny Yeager’s pin-up photos to the megastardom of Jenna Jameson. It’s also impossible to put down.”
—L.A. City Beat
“When pornography becomes an accredited major at Harvard and M.I.T., this should become the standard history text.”
—Josh Alan Friedman, author of
Tales of Times Square
