Review & Description

"The Hunger for Touch and Love" explores our hunger for touch and love, and connects it with the explosive growth of massage establishments worldwide.

Passionate, funny, and breathtakingly honest, this memoir of massage experiences is also an accidental guide to massage in the author’s trademark style of combining serious observations with outrageous humor.

Mark Twain said, "Nature knows no indecencies. Man invents them." If you agree, then you will appreciate this book's childlike joy in the pleasures of touch.It is also for lovers of language, for those who appreciate wordplay, humor, and total honesty in their writers.

The author is a critically acclaimed writer who has published 8 other books, one of which has been published in ten countries and was called "very funny" by Kurt Vonnegut.

• "Brave and fearless." --Mita Kapur, author.
• "Blisteringly honest, and above all, funny! I laughed out loud once every 3 pages!"--James Farley, Writer/Social Worker
• "Fresh, witty, thoroughly enjoyable, and deeply human"--Alexander Von Prellwitz of the Eulama Literary Agency (Rome).
