Mind Blower

by Marco Vassi

When Michael answers a peculiar classified ad in New York, he senses he's in for a sexual adventure. What he doesn't expect is the Institute for Sexual Metatheater, a secretive, cloistered group controlled by the rotund Doctor Tocco. Upon stepping through its doors, Michael finds himself ensnared in a world of sexual experimentation far beyond anything he's managed on his own. Almost immediately, Tocco puts Michael through a series of sexual tests, both physically intense and emotionally brutal. Endless variations of passionate encounters are meant to open Michael's mind. Soon however, Michael realizes Tocco's true aim--to blur the line between nightmare and fantasy. Will he survive the emotional toll? The physical? Will Michael survive at all...?Author Marco Vassi was possibly the greatest erotic writer of his generation. His first publisher at Olympia Press, Maurice Girodias, compared his prose to Henry Miller's. Although his life was cut short, his memory lives on here with the release of The Vassi Collection. With MIND BLOWER, join Vassi in his stunning exploration of the human sexual and spiritual experience.
