Adrenaline: a novel | James Robert Baker

2 posts | 1 read | 2 to read

It begins as a routine trick: two guys on a beach after midnight. Instant attraction, chemical overload, but in the heat of the moment they are interrupted. Brutalized by police, they fight back, a cop dies, and Nick and Jeff are on the run through Los Angeles at its worst. James Robert Baker's cult first novel -- originally published under the name James Dillinger -- is at once an anarchist's howl of rage at oppression and the soulless culture of Hollywood, and it is a noir thriller peppered with hilarious vignettes and ironic insight.

Adrenaline: a novel | James Robert Baker

#getmovin #adrenaline I will never pass up a moment to promote James Robert Baker. The passages above and below are taken from Wikipedia:

Planet Out noted the book as an "unapologetic jackhammer of anti-right, anti-homophobe, anti-corporate invective, despised by polite gays, embraced by activist queers, and garnered both hostile reviews and exuberant word-of-mouth.”

Forgive the collage. #resistance. James Robert Baker writes a biting satirical tale of Nick and Jeff, who while having sex, gets interrupted by 2 LAPD cops. Protecting themselves they take one hostage . The LAPD sends a swat team who accidentally shoots the cop taken hostage. Of course its those dirty fags' fault, this being the early 80's. The rest of this book is Nick and Jeff on a run Hollywood, itself, could never have thought of. RIP JRB
