Porn Saga. "A Private Man", by Malcolm Knox [review]

Abstract

Gabriel Garcia Marquez once said that all of us lead three different lives simultaneously: public, private and secret. In his second novel, "A Private Man", Malcolm Knox explores two very secret recesses of the modern Australian male’s experience: porn and sport. That both these spheres also have a very public face merely allows for these secret experiences to be played out in front of a paying audience as either tragedy or farce, or sometimes both.
