Along with writers like Tucker Max and Maddox, *Chad Kultgen’s work has been lumped into the emerging guy-lit genre, “fratire”, a category short on flowery prose and long on synonyms for tits. Kultgen’s first book, Average American Male, offered a blunt, unsparing look into the mind of a typical 20-something guy, working a typical job, who typically watches Internet porn. His sophomore book, The Lie, comes out today.
Kultgen arrived at West Hollywood’s Palihouse with the hotel’s address penned on his forearm. After taking a few sips of a dense Belgian stout, he declared he’d had better, and he’d had worse. Then he said, “Begin.” We will, after the jump.
