Lazy
Sotos' latest controversial dispatch from the dark,and harrowing underbelly of urban sex, crime and,addiction.
Show Adult
Two "film-scripts", the first about editing and content, the second concerned with acting, direction, and instructions/vanity. This fascinating work uses pornography as a Skinner box experiment" and co-opts the behaviourist methodology of psychologist Harry Harlow in a violent new work which goes beyond pornography to investigate the very experience of pornography itself. Within this construct Sotos covers such cases as child porn star Masha Allen, murder victim Carlie Brucie and her prostitute mother Susan Schorpen, and the infant-raping babysitters Alan Webster and Tanya French. He also dissects TV shows Supernanny and To Catch A Predator as publicly acceptable forms of pornography.
The Gates of Janus
Ian Brady and Myra Hindley's spree of torture, sexual abuse, and murder of children in the 1960s was one of the most appalling series of crimes ever committed in England, and remains almost daily fixated upon by the tabloid press. In The Gates of Janus, Ian Brady himself allows us a glimpse into the mind of a murderer as he analyzes a dozen other serial crimes and killers. Criminal profiling by a criminal was not invented by the dramatists of Dexter. Novelist and true-crime writer Colin Wilson, author of the famous and influential book The Outsider, remarks in his introduction to Brady's book that one must first explore the depraved reaches of human consciousness to truly understand human character. When first released in 2001, The Gates of Janus sparked controversy attended by a huge media splash. The new edition, the first in paperback, provides the reader with a decade and a half of updates, including Brady's letters to the publisher, both providing information regarding his own demented history along with demands that Feral House remove its unflattering afterword written by author Peter Sotos.
Proxy

Comfort and Critique
"In this unsettling new book, cult author Peter Sotos recounts the abduction and murder of 8-year-old Sarah Payne, a crime that stunned England and spawned an aftermath of reactionary outcry and violent protest. Through news bites and tabloid clippings reassembled in reverse chronology, Sotos examines the media apotheosis of Payne's parents in the wake of her disappearance, scrutinizes the hidden motives of reporters and citizens driven to hysterical excess by grief, vengeance, and opportunism, and illumines the insatiable lusts that govern the actions of sexual predators. Punctuated by philosophical overtures and self-deprecating quips, Comfort and Critique is a brutal meditation on fantasy and desire set against a backdrop of media banter and illicit back room activity in bars and underground sex clubs. Supplemented by over 100 photos, this volume is possibly Sotos' most revealing and multi-faceted work yet." From publisher's web site, http://www.void-books.com.
Predicate
The Dunblane Massacre in March 1996 by Thomas Hamilton of 16 schoolchildren remains the most abhorred act of mass murder ever perpetrated in the British Isles. Ten years on, Peter Sotos re-examines Hamilton's life and motives, revealing the sick gay paedophile subculture which spawned this most reviled of killers.
Mine
Against a densely imbricated skein of documentary fragments and confessional annotation, Mine advances a sustained, interlocutory investigation into the ulterior etiologies and malignant narcissism of underground pornography. "Answer these questions honestly for yourself."
Tick
Sotos, probably the most important writer on,pornography, unleashes Tick, his latest,controversial dispatch from the cutting edge of,pornography, sexual abuse and degradation.

Desistance
In this prismatic and obliquely appreciative study of Antoine D'Agata's photography, Peter Sotos arraigns the fraught vocabulary of gallery apologists -- and of D'Agata himself -- to locate a "finer definition of pornography" beneath the exigent demands of desire, transgression, and art.
