Profile

Daniel Maurer, author of Brocabulary: The New Man-i-festo of Dude Talk, is a veritable Charles Brokowski, a dirty-minded poet of repressed male intimacy. Inspired, it seems, by the bellowed chitchat one is liable to overhear at a nightlife "douchetination," the Grub Street editor has invented an entire language made up of what can only be called ejaculations—witty, wicked phrases that skewer the very sex organs of the prototypical "modern" male. For unfettered joy in language, you're not likely to find a better book all year. Catch him at Rachel Kramer Bussel's erotic reading series. — Nick Catucci

Schedule

10/16 - New York's Daniel Maurer, Tish Andersen, Heidi Champa, Emerald, Tsaurah Litzky, Michelle Robinson, Donna George Storey, and Fiona Zedde.
