Synopsis

Written by lawyer Henry S. Wilcox and first published in 1892 but never reprinted until now, 'The Great Boo-Boo' is one of the strangest American novels of the 19th century. It tells the story of Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Hogg who, having embezzled money from his father’s bank in Des Moines, boards a ship bound for Fiji. Instead, he’s shipwrecked on the island of King Monop, who owns everything and everyone in his kingdom, and lives in a palace made of crystalised human tears and blood. But that’s just the beginning of Marcus’s adventures. 'The Great Boo-Boo' is a unique mixture of fantasy and science fiction, social satire and farce, with bonus scenes of torture, blood drinking, nudity, homoerotism and lesbianism. This new edition features an introduction by Chris Mikul.
