What happens when a man tries to abolish desire from his life — and discovers desire has other plans? In this fearless, fast-paced erotic dark comedy, Puchy Mushkin attempts the impossible: to purge himself of every dream, ambition, and craving.

Both wildly funny and provocatively candid, The Tyranny of Desire is brilliantly written smut — a true sexistential masterpiece.
