Prisoner of X: 20 Years in the Hole at Hustler Magazine

Description:

Prisoner of X: 20 Years in the Hole at Hustler Magazine is a savagely funny odyssey through the bizarro world of Larry Flynt’s cracker-rich X-rated empire.

During his tenure in the Hustler trenches, punk-rock dropout Allan MacDonell ascends from entry-level comma-catcher to editorial overlord of the unseemly offerings at Larry Flynt Publications. Here’s the inside story of running America’s most influential porn domain.

A professional career of evaluating countless skin photos, taking XXX field trips, mastering “fully erect” film criticism and enduring creepy interoffice schemers suddenly launches MacDonell into national politics when Larry Flynt opens his wallet to impact the impeachment proceedings against President William Jefferson Clinton. MacDonell reveals the backside of his prominent role in tricking right-wing Speaker-elect Bob Livingston into resigning from Congress.

Prisoner of X is a wildly entertaining memoir about life climbing the bent and fearsome masthead of an infamous magazine, and the bittersweet reward of publicly crossing its hillbilly Caesar.

Aside from being the most prolific writer in the history of Larry Flynt Publications, Allan MacDonell contributed to the archetypal punk magazine Slash and the underground anthology Apocalypse Culture. Freelance pieces have appeared in venues as diverse as Gambling Times magazine, MrSkin.com and the L.A. Weekly. Mr. MacDonell lives in California's Hollywood Hills with two dogs, his wife Theresa, and a clear conscience.


Editorial Reviews

Review

A luridly entertaining memoir... MacDonell strives to balance the sleaze with dry wit and genteel wordplay and often strikes gold. -- Rolling Stone, May 4, 2006

Entertaining... As former Hustler editor MacDonell s memoir makes clear, the porn mag exists in its own alternate universe. --
Spin, May 2006

Hours of guilty pleasure that pass like seconds...Indulge before the restraining orders pull this great book off store shelves. --
Chuck Palahniuk, author of Fight Club, Choke, and Haunted

R. Crumb crossed with William S. Burroughs and the satiric outrage of Hunter S. Thompson. --
Evan Wright, author of Generation Kill

Scabrous, cleverly funny new memoir... MacDonell lays the whack-off industry bare... All that's missing is a scratch-and-sniff centerfold. --
BlackBook, may 2006

The first must-read book on porn. --
Luke Ford, author of A History of X: 100 Years of Sex in Film and XXX-Communicated
