An Evening of Romantic Lovemaking is the tale of a would-be standup comedian/terrorist as he hilariously and heart-wrenchingly performs his last act in front of an audience who may or may not be there. Curtis White calls it both the funniest and one of the saddest novels I've ever read and a work of comic genius. While comparisons to Gilbert Sorrentino, Mark Leyner, and Flann O'Brien will be made, Slotky's voice is entirely his own and one you'll not soon forget.
