The Smut Book

<p><strong>“<em>This</em> is what you will remember—where you were and what you did when face to face in the dark with certain persons. Everything else falls away lost in the backwash of time.”—From the author</strong></p><p> “Chances are there’s more smut in the mind of the average reader than in the pages Tito Perdue’s <em>The Smut Book</em>. This is a gently wry novel about a pre-teen boy’s awakening interest in the opposite sex set in 1950 in a small Alabama town. It is a world in which healthy youngsters grow up fast barely contained by close families hovering teachers and chaperoned dances. But it seems as decorous as a Jane Austen novel from the vantage point of our hypersexualized smut-inundated present even though it was less than a lifetime ago.”</p><p>—Greg Johnson author of <em>Toward a New Nationalism</em></p>
