Excerpt

She really surprised me with that. She had such an enchanting voice, with just the slightest Spanish accent. I didn’t even realize it had been released as a song by Ambrosia in 1975. She had been singing that version to me!
I knew she wasn’t just saying she read it because that poem was in it. It was a quote from Bokonon, a fictional character philosopher who also said “If you find your life tangled up with somebody else’s life for no very logical reasons,” writes Bokonon, “that person may be a member of your karass.”
I thought of Manena as now being part of my karass. After all, through an unpredictable set of circumstances, here we now were sitting at the table across from each other.
“How did you get in this movie?”
“I’m going out with Don (Simmons, the assistant director) I couldn’t help but wonder if he knew she was with me tonight.
After drinks she was more noticeably relaxed. We kissed at the table. Her lips were sweet. She invited me back to her place. She was definitely giving me all the signals…or so I thought...



Professional Reviews

I am so happy to have stumbled upon this fascinating book.
Mr. Lions (aka Rod Pierce) walks you thru his unplanned journey into the 1980's New York City pornographic cinema industry. The book is filled with honest and often comical commentary about the actors, directors, and producers. We get a glimpse into a world which is foreign to almost all of us. It is a quick read which I will keep on my shelf and share with my friends.
