    But I agreed to something I surely never would have done in my right mind. Maybe it’s too late to back out now… Spring Break was supposed to be Fiona and I living it up in Miami. Of course, we got a little too drunk our first night out on Ocean Drive. That’s when I met Mark and agreed to something no v*rgin would dream of doing. He proposed the idea of me being not with one person – but all of his colleagues. I was both thrilled and horrified by the idea.

    As true tops, the bossy hunks in these stories understand that erotic BDSM is about exulting in power that is freely yielded.

    Benson is the compelling story of a young man’s quest for the perfect master. In a West Village leather bar, he finds wealthy, sophisticated, exacting Aristotle Benson, who leads him down the path of erotic enlightenment, teaching him to accept cruelty as love, anguish as affection, and ultimately, Mr. Benson as his master.If John Preston, the masterly, handsome author of more than 30 books, was himself a gay icon, his character Mr. Benson defined the culture of gay sex for an entire generation. When Mr. Benson appeared in the pre-AIDS early 1980s, its unabashed celebration of male sexuality made it a cult favorite among gay men, many of whom wore T-shirts declaring that they were "looking for Mr. Benson." The novel's fresh voice and insights into identity, desire, power, and love influenced a generation of writers and editors, including Anne Rice, Samuel Delany, Michael Lowenthal, Laura Antoniou, Joan Nestle, Michael Rowe, and Cecilia Tan. Mr. Benson was Preston's first novel and was followed by many more books from the proud, self-styled "pornographer."
