Death Wish

1977Iceberg Slim

4.5/5

Terrible, just appalling. I'm not even talking about the subject matter, but this was just awful writing even for the lurid market of pulp action it's aimed at. The characters are cartoons, the dialogue veers between street hard, porno unsexy sex talk, and campy racial caricature. The sex is so silly it borders on satire "She leaped astride him and impaled herself on his joint, heavy veined and fat with blood. She hooded her eyes and humped his weapon until she squealed and drooled saliva. Then in slow motion she looped the noose about the head of his organ.Jessie gazed at her awesome butt reflected in a moonlit mirror. It was swaying and tossing with airy artistry as the noose leeched and grabbed. With a growl of joy he flung her beneath him, then smoothly eased himself into her and stroked her womb gate." "Womb gate" is a definite favorite. "Womb gate"? What the fuck is that? A cervix? As for dialogue, how about "You said he would be forgotten like pee down the toilet, remember?" Or how can you go wrong with this little speech: "Good luck, Giacomo, and remember your Papa Bellini let go before the witch of power could hustle a price on my life or drag my rear end with cancer that can come from the power pressure."I don't even know what that's supposed to mean? Does anyone?
