We had gotten aboard a roller coaster, and it was a race for our lives, on a one-way track . . .In New York City during the heady, tumultuous years of the 1960s, a young couple meet. Together they embark on a dark erotic journey into forbidden sexuality - travelling on an incandescent road to nowhere in their tragic fall from grace. Scorching and poignant, and banned upon its first publication in England, Evil Companions is a masterpiece of contemporary erotica. 'Evil Companions is a meticulous miracle of language and observation . . . A dark jewel on the erotic landscape.' Samuel R. Delany
