More About This Book

Overview

Sexual Blood is a wild, cybersexual trip through the dark side of America's media-manipulated consciousness. In Sexual Blood, Amerika tracks the bohemian life of his main character, Mal, an alternative rock musician whose strange encounter with the Medicine Woman causes him to hallucinate a fantasy land populated by all of his former lovers. Mal, hoping to repent for all the emotional damage he's caused in the past, seeks a magic transfusion that will turn him into a compassionate human being: this is when he enters the realm of the Sexual Blood. Charged with a sensual language not seen since Henry Miller, Amerika's alchemical mix of grunge rockers, riot girls, reality hackers, expatriates and guerrilla artists opens up an erotic world lost in a theater of cruelty.

    Sexy but Smart

    I bought this book awhile ago and have been meaning to actually find the time to read it! I finally dove in and think it could be Amerika's best book. I enjoyed the Joycian language play and pomo collateral damage of his first novel, The Kafka Chronicles, but here the narrative is more direct. I found it very much like Henry Miller's best work where the character, an oversexed male, finds his alternative Other, both in himself and outside himself. Some of the language is brilliant, sort of a Henry Rollins punk edge wit enough cyberlines to bring in the sci-fi audience too. There's one scene where the protagonist, Mal, is locked in a room with a virtual version of Madonna (yes, that Madonna) and the ensuing results are incredibly funny yet also scary (locked up in a room with Madonna?). Check it out; it's worth it.
