Transfer Queen - Paperback

by Patty Barth (Illustrator), A. W. Strouse (Author)

"A.W. Strouse's entrancing epigrams combine tough-minded bawdiness and neoclassical beauty. In his deft hands, acute sociological analysis arrives via subway voyeurism. Take this fearless book on your next ride. Notice how Strouse's lines and Patty Barth's lucid drawings sharpen your yearnings and make them newly available for blame-free inspection." Wayne Koestenbaum

"Literarily incorrect." John Waters, on why he didn't want to review this book.

Cruising the New York City subway, the Transfer Queen is on the prowl! These voyeuristic figure drawings-both poetic and visual-sketch the men of Gotham's transportation system. A.W. Strouse and Patty Barth spy on strangers with a special kind of anonymous intimacy. Transfer Queen is ideal reading material for kinky commuters. But remember: "A crowded subway car is no excuse for unlawful sexual conduct!"
