"There is no such thing as great sex unless you have an apocalyptic moment." * "The difference between writing and…
literature is agreeable style and irony. This book has both." * "Objective, funny, salacious and perversely-dare I say it- uplifting!" NORMAN MAILER "Undeniably brilliant." LEGS McNEIL "Swimming in audacity." DWAYNE RAYMOND LAURA MEETS JEFFREY is a love story, a name-dropping, hilarious, shameless erotic cyclone, a documentary of the excesses, dangers and extreme edges of sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll, and a close-up personal history of sexual liberation's primetime. LAURA MEETS JEFFREY while she's working in an upscale New York City brothel in 1980 and they share an apocalyptic moment. It's love at first orgasm. And so begins their double lives. At dinner parties she's known as a witty lingerie model and jewelry artisan, and a famous film director's ex-lover. He's her media wizard boyfriend, a designer discovered by John Lennon who worked for John & Yoko, Apple Records and the Rolling Stones, and then created Puritan, the world's largest-selling explicit sex magazine. On weekends he boxes with Ryan O'Neal and Jose Torres. In their bedroom, many other rooms, rooftops, hotel elevators and the New York, LA and Miami demimonde of call girls, coke dealers, BDSM, on-premise sex clubs, adult bookstore glory holes, orgies, porn stars, Jerzy Kosinski, Al Goldstein and a horny White House speechwriter or two, Laura and Jeffrey transform into unquenchable libidomaniacs. Norman Mailer considered his famous interview with Jeffrey and Laura on "Ethics and Pornography," excerpted as a bonus chapter in this book, one of the best of the more than 600 he gave in his lifetime. Mailer bequeathed the Foreword and gave guidance to this account of two lovers, who missed none of the wild era just before the door slammed shut on sexual freedom and aren't afraid to reveal all of it. Introduction by Legs McNeil.
