When Neal Tate, a just-out-of-rehab NYC party columnist, falls for
Dewalt, a Harlem drug dealer he meets at a gay bathhouse, he
discovers that navigating an honest relationship is a lot more
difficult than chasing down the perfect pair of skinny jeans.
Neal finds support from his fashion-loving friends: Rovvy, a blond
boy-toy married to Andres Palamos, the shady millionaire owner of
Pop magazine where Neal works; Nick, "It-boy" style writer for the
New York Times whose fab job and rich hubby are smothering his
desires to design; and Annie, straight-girl art director at Pop who
gives Neal's life a smidge of balance.
The success of Neal's "Bergdorf Boy" column and his growing love
for Dewalt lead him to question his capacity for intimacy and his
obsessive commitment to both the latest trend and anonymous sex,
and to wonder if a monogamous gay marriage could be in the cards.
These Bergdorf boys hop from Madison Avenue shopping sprees to
Fire Island photo shoots, dipping their manicured toes into the
dizzy underside of the gay nightlife scene hunting for lust, love,
and designer must-haves.
Witty, dark and explosively carnal, Diary of a Sex Addict
chronicles a gay New Yorker's month-long descent into a circus of
anonymous hook-ups as he struggles to erase the pain of a failed
romance and blot out the routine of a soul-numbing day job. Bizarre
gang-bangs and fleeting attempts at celibacy are interspersed with
visits to his wealthy and eccentric dowager aunt, visits which
awaken lost memories of a chaotic youth.
Written in prose that is at once poetic and unabashedly lewd,
Diary offers a glimpse into a forbidden fringe world of longing and
debauchery that ultimately reveals the narrator's fervent search
for something to fill a profound emptiness.
Inspired by the transgressive works of the Marquis de Sade, Dennis
Cooper and Bret Easton Ellis, Diary of a Sex Addict blends wry
humor, elegant language and graphic sex to offer a novel that is
"relentlessly erotic and divinely written" (Richard Labonte,
Bookmarks).
