SYNOPSIS
A Stunning Novel of Eros Noir! Thrill City is more "razor-blade fiction" (Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction) from the pen of Jean Marie Stine. In Thrill City a powerful telepath lies insane in a hospital near Los Angeles dreaming he is God. Driven mad by the darkness, violence and cruelty of humankind, he pours it back on them – the citizens of a big city his puppets, made to go through the movements of a nightmare ritual of sex, violence and perversion. And the world he creates is no less than the nightmare landscape of our own cities today! Yet not everyone submits. Here and there individual women and men attempt to reach out through his darkness and their own to seek love, tenderness, compassion. But can they resist him? And do they really want to. "Where science fiction is often male chauvinist, this might raise male consciousness." Worlds Beyond: A Critical History of Science Fiction. "Lip-smackingly good [erotica], a good SF book and a rather better novel qua novel. Stine never offers an explicit sexual scene in standard cliché ... terms – each one of her descriptions brings a personal and original observation into play. Many of these observations are not erotic – they may even strike some readers as anti-erotic – but they ring with truth. A genuine work of erotic realism, written far above the standards of pornography." Ted White, editor Heavy Metal. "Reveals the exploitative and vicious secret life of America. A horrific, phantasmagoric portrayal of an America in which sexual assault is a metaphor for the violent disintegration of society. Stine sees the destructive side of Dionysus emerging not from individual men – the Sadean angle – but from society as a whole. Sexual repression inevitably results in psychic explosions." The Secret Record: The Story of Modern Erotic Literature. Not for the squeamish!
