Last to Leave (Book 1) (The Erotic Memoirs of Benjamin Aaron Jonson)

Sex, drugs, and alternative metal—in Iowa? The state George Will once referred to as “a dark, brooding, insular, medieval sort of place?” He obviously never met any of the characters in Last to Leave, the story of a young cynic’s erotic educationMoreSex, drugs, and alternative metal—in Iowa? The state George Will once referred to as “a dark, brooding, insular, medieval sort of place?” He obviously never met any of the characters in Last to Leave, the story of a young cynic’s erotic education and coming of age in the last place most readers would ever expect to find cynicism—or sex.Ben Jonson may look like a typical teenaged nineties guy in the whitebread wasteland of suburban Des Moines, but behind that cool facade of laconic apathy, there’s a brilliant, articulate, skeptical, sports-hating nerd trying to fit in, go with the flow, unravel the mysteries of women, and have a shot at getting laid every once in a while.Read Last to Leave and you may never think of Iowa or the Midwest in quite the same way again.
