Praise for Testo Junkie
"Testo Junkie is an arresting hybrid work: a philosophical treatise and a literary homage embedded in a sexually explicit drug diary addressed to a ghost. Preciado's prose is psychedelic, hyperbolic maybe, but exciting, persuasive, and even consoling." –Johanna Fateman, Bookforum
"Testo Junkie is a wild ride. Preciado leaves the identity politics of taking T to others, and instead, in the tradition of William S. Burroughs, Kathy Acker, and Jean Genet, he conducts a wild textual experiment. The results are spectacular . . . The gendered body will never be the same again." –Jack Halberstam, author of The Queer Art of Failure
"Paul B. Preciado's brilliant book oscillates between high theory and the surging rush of testosterone. Flush with elegant theoretical formulations, lascivious sex narratives, and astute histories of gender, Testo Junkie is a key text to comprehend the deep interconnectedness of sex and drugs today." –José Esteban Muñoz, author of Cruising Utopia
