FIFTY SHADES OF LOVE: FALLING IN LOVE IN A BROTHEL
Laura Meets Jeffrey Author, Jeffrey Michelson chats with The Artsy Fartsy Show's Barika Edwards about his dual-erotic memoir of sexy New York of yesterday and falling in love in the big apple.
This was the era when drugs were hip, rock ‘n’ roll was exploding, Baby Boomer hormone levels were jumping off the charts and sex didn’t kill you. LAURA MEETS JEFFREY, a shameless, hilarious, erotic cyclone, is the memoir of two unquenchable libidomaniacs who missed none of it.
Barika interview author Jeffrey Michelson on his dual-written memoir the documents the excesses and dangers of the wild days just before the door slammed shut on sexual liberation’s primetime.
About the Book
Laura is a witty lingerie model, artist, and a famous film director’s ex-lover. Jeffrey is a media wizard who worked for John & Yoko, Apple Records and The Rolling Stones. He then created Puritan, the successful and literate hardcore sex magazine. On weekends he boxes withRyan O’Neal and José Torres. In the demimonde of orgies, BDSM, glory holes, call girls, porn stars, coke dealers, Timothy Leary, Jerzy Kosinski, Al Goldstein, and horny White House speechwriters, Laura and Jeffrey transform into a sexual tag team.
Norman Mailer guided this book and bequeathed the Foreword. “Ethics and Pornography,” his 1980 interview with Michelson and Bradley, was one of his favorites of the more than 600 he gave, and it’s a bonus chapter in this book. Legs McNeil, author of Please Kill Me, the Oral History of Punk, wrote the Introduction.
