Description for Bliss Incorporated
Hardcover. Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1976, 1st edn. with dust cover, in mint condition but for one small nich on the top front fold; violet cloth; 196pp; Ever since the ancient days of Mamu, the Babylonian queen of dreams, humankind has yearned in vain to control the quality and content of the dream-world. St Augustine, for example, was embarrassed by the gross sexuality of his - but he could do nothing to change it, except pray for subconscious reform. Now, with recent massive sleep research and the development of new brain technology, relief seems to be at hand. In this satirical erotic novel, a frustrated, recently divorced young engineer joins the staff of an eccentric New York millionaire's Institute of Morphean Research. There he learns to programme his dreams and finds himself embroiled in the sexual fantasies of contemporary fiction. After episodes reminiscent of the works of Harold Robbins, Norman Mailer, Saul Bellow, Kurt Vonnegut Jr, William Burroughs and other cultural leaders of our time, our hero's sponsor decides to help with a mind-bending scenario of his own….Sweet dreams. 8x5¼".
