  • Oh, had no idea they made a movie. Desiree, 2014, on my watchlist. Not a great name, certainly not as good as Dermaphoria. It’s been so long since the book for me though, maybe the film will be fun. Fingers twirled.

    Yea, I totally agree about the book. Once you figure out what the hell is happening, it’s incredibly engrossing.

    I’ll look into your other authors as well, I haven’t delved into that genre in a long time. Any recommendations on where to start in them considering how highly I regard Clevenger?


  • I was crazy about Craig Clevenger when Contortionist’s Handbook came out, i think i read it twice in a row, and liked Dermaphoria, which got me into Baer through Kiss Me Judas.

    Handbook was revolutionary for me, i completely fell into the story and that primed me for dermaphoria, which i remember as more abstract at points, which made it easier to be absorbed by some of his prose.

    I remember after Clevenger I was like “more books like this please” and they were really hard to track down or specifically identify, so it took me a while to find Judas.

    I see Clevenger finally released a recent third novel in 2023 that i have to read now, so thank you for this memory jog!
