In Lust We Trust: Adventures in adult cinema
No one else has written about our industry with as much edgy eloquence or literary flair. (Asia Carrera )For those intrigued by the idea of on-screen sex, this book is a real eye-opener. (Stephen Leather )Gerrie Lim, rock critic and former writer for AVN Online, Penthouse and other hardcore publications, has crafted an engaging and intimate look at the modern porn industry ... and at the same time chronicled his own thoughts and feelings as an outside journalist in the through-the-looking-glass world of hardcore production, all wrapped in wry commentary rarely seen in literature about XXX. Lim has been on dozens of sets and interviewed dozens of stars, including Asia Carrera, Ava Vincent, Chandler, Annabel Chong, Kobe Tai, Silvia Saint and, of course, Jenna Jameson and Janine, as well as directors Andrew Blake and Anna Span, and in the book reveals such tidbits as Asia's suicidal diary entries and Janine's thoughts on her hardcore "debut" with Vince Neil. Retailing: One of the best "insider" books on the industry, and well worth stocking. (Mark Kernes )
