Description

The definitive epic of crime and gay sex

Literature scientists at fancy university places have often wondered: what would it be like if someone wrote a 17th century serial rogue's tale of a picaresque but instead of being about chivalry and carousing it was about two trans girls doing things such as drugs and sex work and car chases off bridges and joining cults and gross body stuff and Looney Tunes cartoon violence against all who get in the way of their mission to do whatever they want to do, which is mostly to be gay and commit felonies? Instead of dropping various acids onto books and then looking at them through microscopes, the literature scientists should just read this and then they would know the answers.

As if Hothead Paisan crashed into Ducks, Newburyport, as if Pansy Division set off on a Don Quixote adventure, as if the Blues Brothers came back as young transsexual prostitute lovers, Crime Cube: Molly & Pyxxy Do Crimes is the outlandish, showstopping, never-try-this-at-home punk rock romp of the century.

A Note From the Publisher

Sybil Lamb's Crime Cube: Molly & Pyxxy Do Crimes is about two trans girls who fall in love, try to impress each other through criminal activity, and soon enough they’ve infiltrated a blood coven, stolen several cars, embezzled money from not one but two S&M transsexual houses of prostitution, broken open an ATM with a fireaxe, and that’s not even the first quarter of the book, as it is a maximalist 700-page epic.

It is also a blockbuster X-rated picaresque Looney Tunes-grade criminal romance that makes Thelma and Louise look like a kid’s show.

It is also strangely one of the funniest and sweetest romances you've ever read.

It is also so depraved and dirty it feels like only something you might've stumbled on in a 2 AM grindhouse movie theater in the 1980s and left feeling gross about yourself.

It is one of the most ambitious and beautiful books this publisher has ever worked on.

Sybil Lamb is a queer underground legend. Enjoy the book.
