Spine Intact, Some Creases

A legendary name from the Golden Age of Paperbacks, Victor J. Banis spins a witty and exuberant tale of A Thousand and One Knights, flitting blithely from tale to tail, in one era and out the other. Part autobiography, part a history of the Gay Revolution, part writing manual, part juicy gossip, with a few tasty recipes thrown in for good measure, Spine Intact, Some Creases is a summing up - alternately hilarious and touching, instructive and impassioned, and always entertaining - of the remarkable life and work of a writer hailed by top gay pulp historian Michael Bronski as "one of my heroes."

Wonderful history!

Who better to detail gay publishing during the Sexual Revolution than one of the most important authors of the era? Loved every minute. Narrator is also one of my favorites. He doesn’t just perform, he embodies the author.
