Book excerpt: "I Love Lord Buddha is the transgressive, transcendent first novel that some are calling the future of literature, and others are calling a post--pornographic revolution. Set in late-90's Tokyo, it recounts the history of the Neo-Geisha Organization, a sex-and-death cult with an anticonsumerist, pro-hedonist, sub-Buddhist ideology.
