Confessions of a Sex Addict, Part 1

A first-hand account of what goes on in some of London's saunas and sex clubs, and on the phone-sex chat-lines. Generous and intimate details, as well as a no holds barred exploration of promiscuity, The Confessions of a Sex Addict, Part 1 is also the story of artists in London. Of Michael Wynne's journey to become a writer, as well as his lesbian painter friend, McKenzie, and Zaid, the kathak dancer, all of them trying to make a living while making art. Covering the first six months of 2010, the book is also a chronicle of a year in which an earthquake devastated Haiti, floods wrecked large parts of Pakistan, and Eyjafjallajökull erupted. Never before has a single writer elaborated on the steamy, anonymous goings-on of gay men in subterranean London with such psychological and physical honesty.
