DESCRIPTION:
The subject matter of Hogg is our culture of sexual violence and degeneration. As such, it is a brave book.. Since then it has been one of America's most famous 'unpublishable' novels. Acclaimed winner of the William Whitehead Memorial Award for a lifetime's contribution to gay and lesbian literature, Samuel R. 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. Delany wrote Hogg three decades ago
He enlists the help of other pedophiliac murdering rapists?Nigg, Dago and Denny?and the group sets off to perform acts of hideous violence. The traumatized little girl is gang-raped by Hogg's crew as well. Gang-rape attacks and criminal sex orgies are detailed at excruciating length, with photographic realism. This potent emetic is all the more disturbing for want of modulators of honest outrage. The main narrator here is an 11-year-old boy who joins up with a raping, murdering pederast named Hogg. Coprophiliac Hogg violates women for pay. . Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc. 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.

Very Interesting and Sick Sick Sick 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.

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.
