Shoe Leather [Paperback]

Stan Kent (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 15, 1999

Written in a slangy, stream-of-consciousness style, the memoir of Violetta Valery Cutrero, teenage antiheroine, pulls the reader into a world of killers and victims. A cat-and-mouse game between Violetta and a cross-dressing slasher-sadist is set in the new "Gay Nineties" of San Francisco, amid a bizarre array of thrill- seekers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent; pushes the envelopes of both erotica and thriller, August 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Shoe Leather (Paperback)

Even having read Kent's earlier fiction, "Shoe Leather" was so much more than I expected. Kent has managed to simultaneously expand the perameters of both the erotica and thriller genres, as well as introduce a lovable heroine with an ingenious "super-power," the likes of which neither genre has ever seen. Gripping, funny and genuinely tension-filled, "Shoe Leather" is groundbreaking in so many ways, I'm actually surprised a small publisher was daring enough to take a chance on putting it out. If Mr Kent hasn't yet written a script version, he needs to get right on it. Until then, I hope we can expect more adventures with Violetta.
