Candy
Candy | Terry Southern, Mason Hoffenberg
1 post | 3 read
Banned upon its initial publication, the now-classic Candy is a romp of a story about the impossibly sweet Candy Christian, a wide-eyed, luscious, all-American girl. Candy -- a satire of Voltaire’s Candide -- chronicles her adventures with mystics, sexual analysts, and everyone she meets when she sets out to experience the world.

Probably the funniest book I have ever read. Southern was better known as a screenwriter (Dr. Strangelove, Easy Rider) but his novels and journalism are great too. Co-written with Mason Hoffenberg, this is a silly sex farce. You will crack up.
