Second-longest of the books in Mr. Harris' legendary series, this tale stars young Frank, from his Irish boyhood to his stay in the wilds of America, with a back-handed nod at so many of the improving tomes for boys, popular in Harris' youth. My Life was a huge success, becoming synonymous with decadence in fiction and banned everywhere. Also notable: the way Mr. Harris really, really ticked off the estate of Thomas Carlyle, and, given the subject matter, Harris' odd stance on masturbation.
"My Life and Loves" is a controversial autobiography, long banned in the U.S. and England. Renowned for its erotic content, it offers a captivating glimpse into the literary and social life of the fin-de-siècle era, making it both notorious and entertaining.
