Nostalgic for the old days and old manners, a way of life lost to grace, loving from afar a mysterious beauty named Rapunzel Wisht, Eugene Eyestones, an erudite sex columnist for a Boston cultural magazine, fights against the rising tide of stupidity, focusing on would-be artist Laura Warholic in the hope that by saving her he can validate his ethical beliefs. But feckless Laura and the colorful-but-bizarre cast of characters surrounding Eugene - brilliant bigots, nihilists, Generation-X slackers, and zanies of all sexual persuasions- threaten to pull him under, leading to the novel's unforgettable conclusion, a climax of betrayal and redemption of Dostoevskyan power.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51882440786208,"sku":"NEW1560977981","price":71.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71gI_WQUJOL.jpg?v=1781845189","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/laura-warholic-or-the-sexual-intellectual-1560977981","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
