Synopsis
Did you know that Martin Luther suffered from constipation, and spoke, wrote and thought in fecal imagery? That Luther's vision of the Devil was of an anus-faced job mooning and farting over the great Reformer at prayer. If you'd like to know more about our bodily functions and the taboos that surround them, then Paul Spinrad's book of bodily emissions is especially for you. England's upper crust is renowned for its toilet humour. Why? Where else would there be a scatalogical Lives of the Greats? Who was the intermationally-famous farting singer who has a street named after him in Paris? And how much will a can of shit sell for in Sothebys? What about the history and evolution of toilet paper? From different coloured urine to where do you pick your nose (bathroom, bedroom, car?) and what do you do with the boogers when you've snagged them, this scientifical, anthropological, historical, mytholigical, soiologi al, and artistic study brings bodily functions out of the (water) closet into the public arena.
