The first publication of "Raw Talent" created an extraordinary
flurry of publicity. Jerry Butler appeared on dozens of talk shows,
capturing audiences with his intensity and charm. Reviews of the
book lauded Butler's honesty and remarked on the double standard
that permits explicit violence on film - but not explicit sex. The
book sold out four printings; nonetheless, reactions within the
adult film industry included heated debate and an unofficial
blacklisting of Butler. The former star of X-rated films and winner
of many awards, Jerry Butler wrote the book that many warned would
"finish him" in the business that had rewarded him with money and
fame.But it is characteristic of Butler that these warnings didn't
prevent him from producing this devastatingly honest appraisal of
the adult film trade - and of himself. For, while Butler is frankly
critical of an industry that treats actors and actresses like
throw-away props, and allows unprotected sex in the age of AIDS, he
reserves his most candid commentary for himself. "Raw Talent" tells
the story of Butler's erotic voyage from average child to sex star.
The epilogue added to this new edition answers the question: where
will Jerry go from here?
