Porno Graph


THE ITCH cannot be found on Google. This novel about sex no longer exists in the 21st Century except in the collection of pornophiles. I held it in my hands many times. Mostly my left hand. Certain pages were my favorites.

A friend once borrowed THE ITCH to write about 1950s stroke books. He never returned it. The sense of loss haunts my libido to this day and my search of the internet pales to the pleasures derived from reading about the lurid passages. The mind is much quicker than the eye.

Of course few people admit to watching porno.

Not me.

As Gore Vidal said, "Looking at porno only leads to more looking at porno."

How right he was.
