G Legman

World I Never Made G Legman

Writing pornography for a wealthy collector, printing and publishing books forbidden by the laws of censorship of the period (during World War II), young Legman also writes his first book, "Oragenitalism." This is published by Jake Brussel under a pseudonym, which Gershon didn't want to use at first. Most of the copies were seized in a raid, and to avoid going to jail, Legman must go on the lam. During the same period, he has his most torrid affair. He has encounters with Henry Miller, Anaïs Nin, Mahlon Blaine and many others. This is the dramatic and savory continuation of Legman's life in New York in the early 1940s, with much bibliographic history and lore. ISBN-13: 978-1548442439 ISBN-10: 1548442437
