About this item
by Pietro Di Donato (Author), Fred L. Gardaphe (Editor)
Pietro di Donato's New York Times obit branded him "operatic, lyrical, ferocious, and hilarious," and with good reason; his short stories dominated the red-hot fiction offerings in the top men's magazines during the 1950s, 60s, and 70s . . . Di Donato shocked and delighted the readers of Esquire, Playboy, Penthouse, Ramparts, and OUI, making him the star of highbrow literary pulp on the newsstands across America.
Originally made famous by his 1939 novel Christ in Concrete, his evolved voice in these popular magazines captured a whole new audience thirsty for his audacious sexual adventures, transgressions and confessions, poetic voice and fierce political stands. Now, finally, the untamable writer is captured in one volume: The Collected Stories of Pietro di Donato.
