"
This
is what you will remember--where you were and what you did when face to face in the dark with certain persons. Everything else falls away, lost in the backwash of time."--From the author
"Chances are, there's more smut in the mind of the average reader than in the pages Tito Perdue's
The Smut Book
. This is a gently wry novel about a pre-teen boy's awakening interest in the opposite sex, set in 1950 in a small Alabama town. It is a world in which healthy youngsters grow up fast, barely contained by close families, hovering teachers, and chaperoned dances. But it seems as decorous as a Jane Austen novel from the vantage point of our hypersexualized, smut-inundated present, even though it was less than a lifetime ago."
