The Main Point

"A sexual biography like none I've ever encountered. At times it reads like Elmore Leonard just met Henry Miller." Oliver Maitland

The story of Bernd Töst and his career as a porn-movie auteur is as colourful and strange as any in the history of pornography. When the subject came of age, the world was still in the grip of post-war austerity. Töst's extraordinary and original outlook was to influence the sexual revolution of the 1960s. He was one of the few people to make sense of his era's cultural and moral chaos. This erotic biography is the most fascinating exposé of the early porn industry and its players since Boogie Nights.

"Noreen strips off her blouse and skirt, so she is just in brassiere and knickers. To be candid, in those days, bras and knickers were not terrifically exciting. Anyway, we are soon naked and we splash around in a big tub full of hot water. Outside the snow falls and I remember the window freezing up and real cold air drifting through the cracks and Noreen has these great breasts, just right you know, and her nipples are stiff and, well, like girls' nipples are, though it could have been the cold. Then it's her mouth around my cock and my first blowjob. I will always thank her for that moment. She has no problem with me coming into her mouth. That is of course the male fantasy. Semen is an acquired taste, and it doesn't arrive with gastronomic credentials. Believe me, the girls who swallow because they love it are pretty scarce."
