Great novel, insightful and interesting glimpse into another era

Brad Gooch has an amazing way with words. This second novel is even better than his first. I couldn't put it down and read it within 24 hours which is a rarity for me. Definitely worth reading.

wallow in the seventies without risk of infection. the glory days uncensored. the mantra: "so many men, so little time". almost an entire generation gone, but never forgotten. "patient zero" gaetan dugas even makes an appearance.
Great book

This book really does cover the golden age. great characters, atmosphere, sex, sense of time and place. It almost felt like looking at an old photo album before the world changed on us.
Fantastic, an unparalleled novel.

I first discovered Brad Gooch's work when I was not quite a year out of a relationship. He inspired me then with Scary Kisses, and has yet once again found a way to do the same.Gooch has a style unmatched today. He draws you into his novel's with his intricate detail of character, which makes you feel as if you are one of their "friend's" along for the journey. When the novel has ended you are left with a sense of nostalgia, feeling you'll miss visiting with your "fiend's" every night.I waited years to find another novel by such a talented and gifted writer, luckily I found it with the same one as before."The Golden Age of Promiscuity" is truly another work of art, from one of this centuries most talented writer's; and will certainly last throughout history.
