Bad Sex on Speed: A Novel

Written by Jerry Stahl

Narrated by Jerry Stahl

Bad Sex On Speed is a savage, careening, hyper-real nightmare of a novel, taking us to the depths of Amphetamine America. Told with no concession to traditional narrative, in the voices of those in the grips and on the fringes, the stories that emerge are at once devastating, hysterical, and—perhaps most terrifying of all—going on all around you, all the time. Stahl digs deep into the psyche of the most demented and dispossessed among us, returning with a vision so unsparing that those not prepared to experience the screaming depths of speed psychosis up close and on the page should back slowly away and return to their lives unscathed.

Reviews for Bad Sex on Speed

[lydia1879 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Edgy short fiction, read during my 'edgy' phase, when I was hungry for anything and everything that even remotely resembled Hunter S. Thompson.

I remember cringing a lot. So many bodily fluids mentioned.

And, despite its gorgeous cover, it's so not-memorable.
