it's time to admit it, /lit/. it's time to admit dennis cooper totally and completely mogs your favorite writer. it's okay. just admit it.
DC mogged his own influences, as a writer I don't think you can get any more based. I'm a big fan of Sade's work, and reading The Sluts on a whim last year made me reconsider his position in my hierarchy. It was "Try" however, that completely knocked him out the park. To this day it remains one of, if not, the most sickening book I came across. People often mention "Frisk" as his most disturbing, but I disagree. I can see why they might say that, but to me, the depravity in "Try" is far more insidious.
