DESCRIPTION:
This potent emetic is all the more disturbing for want of modulators of honest outrage. Meanwhile, teenaged Denny goes on an insane mutilating and mass-murder spree, eludes the police and finally returns to Hogg and the hopelessly confused narrator, who has been "rescued" after Hogg murders Big Sambo. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc. The main narrator here is an 11-year-old boy who joins up with a raping, murdering pederast named Hogg. From Publishers Weekly Hugo-and Nebula Award-winner Delany?whose early books were fascinating but whose recent efforts have grown increasingly obtuse?has been trying to get this pornographic novel published since 1973.

"Very Interesting and Sick Sick Sick" according to PriscillaFlores. Really messed up. Like seriously there's a lot of stuff in this book that will want to make you gag. Also keep in mind the character is an 11 year old. It's kind of funny though, anyone seen the SouthPark episode where the boys write their own "banned" book? Yeah, you got this right here.. "The Aristocrats" according to Sterling Quill. The only reason for The Aristocrats The only reason for 3 stars is because of the sheer nerve it took to try and finally succeed in getting published. Other than that, it's pretty much gutter fodder. Is it shocking? Yes at first, but then the theme becomes tedious to get through. The protagonists are so far left field I got a crick my neck trying to follow them. I picked up Hogg out of curiosity, and maybe you will too. But, if you are familiar with the joke "The Aristocrats," you might want to reconsider out of the possibility of disappointment.. stars is because of the sheer nerve it took to try and finally succeed in getting published.

It's a story about paedophilia if you don't like it don't read it. The only thing I didn't care for was that it didn't start with the boys transition to a sex tool. Instead it opted to start from that moment. You get what you paid for. Amazon Customer It's a story about paedophilia if you don't like it don't read it.

As such, it is a brave book.. Acclaimed winner of the William Whitehead Memorial Award for a lifetime's contribution to gay and lesbian literature, Samuel R. Delany wrote Hogg three decades ago. The subject matter of Hogg is our culture of sexual violence and degeneration. Delany explores his disturbing protagonist Hogg on his own turf--rape, pederasty, sexual excess--exposing an area of violence and sexual abuse from the inside. Since then it has been one of America's most famous 'unpublishable' novels
