Mountainhead - 9780990733560

Dennis Cooper has described New Juche as "one of the most inspiring, original and groundbreaking artists working today," and Mountainhead is arguably his most accomplished work to date. Within the structure of a sexually charged exotic travelogue, we discover prose that is at once repulsive, lyrical, and deeply sensual; that is anchored by a raconteur's instinct for gritty storytelling, yet punctuated by liminal flights of feverish imagination. Mountainhead deftly interlaces personal confession with an unsettling disquisition on pornography, photography, prostitution, the body, identity, and place. In its cascading momentum, readers are confronted by a singular account of personal discovery and deception that remains implacably wedded to the thematic emblem of nature as moral alibi.
