DESCRIPTION:
An amazing, brilliant book. Also, disturbing, but Disturbing isn't really the word I want to use since it implies a value judgement; suffice to say that if you've seen Jamie Gillis at work you know he has a certainquality about him that makes him one of the more interesting performers in the world of porn.This book deals mainly with Jamie's forays into the world of gonzo style.
