Description: Detailing his ventures as a porn star, writer, playwright, and editor of the popular but short-lived journal STEAM, Rarely Pure and Never Simple: Selected Essays of Scott O'Hara includes poems and stories by O'Hara that express his opinions and feelings about monogamy, safe sex, male beauty, morality, social politics, and "being queer.".

Rarely Pure and Never Simple gives you an inside look into the life of this controversial author, who died in February 1998 of AIDS-related complications. O'Hara challenges the 'norms' of society as he discloses intimate thoughts and details about his sex life and fantasies.
