A Book by

 
 
Being an Adaptation and Modernisation of "The Farce of Sodom, or The Quintessence of Debauchery," by Lord Rochester, Libertine & Rakehell, as Versified and Perversified by THE.... Sodomite Hal Duncan!! (sic)

Rochester's Restoration Farce may be the most notorious work of bawdy fun in English Literature, scandalous when it was written and still gloriously filthy even by today's standards. Here, Rochester's lyrics have been modernised to a contemporary rock opera, with none of the mischief lost, maybe even a little added just for fun. Here, you'll meet King Bollox of Sodom, his Royal Catamite, Puckinello, and his Pimpmaster General, Salascio. You'll meet his queen, Cuntacaea, and her Whores of Honour, Vaginia, Labia and Clitorix. You'll meet the Prince and Princess, Pricket and Slitia. You'll meet General Buggerman and Virtuoso, Dildo-Maker by Royal Appointment. Given that the stage directions in the original include a woman representing a fountain in a garden by standing on her head and pissing... well, nuff said, really.

And yeah, I kept that bit in. Duh.
