Books I Read: The Driver's Seat
I decided to read Muriel Spark’s The Driver’s Seat based on Womb House Books excellent Book Domme’s recommendation. This novella is absolutely superb, curiously erotic, and astonishingly demented. Read it.

“Because the narrative is filtered through me, covers a vast expanse of time, and includes not only what I witnessed but how what I witnessed shaped the person I became, the essay had to feature me as a central character. In the past, I’ve avoided this angle; on the set of an adult movie, I am the least interesting thing in the room.” Read my latest newsletter, “How to Perform a Literary Auto-vivisection,” and subscribe.
