Rent Boy by Gary Indiana
Danny is a rent boy, an architecture student, a waiter, and hot! Working his way through school seemed pretty easy; he serves ego-obsessed writers their cocktails at the Emerson Club; he has his toes and other appendages sucked by horny businessmen; and he escorts anyone - male, female, or otherwise - who can afford him. But then his liaison with another rent boy gets him involved with an organ theft ring centering around a crazy old doctor and a crackpot nurse. A relentless stream of social commentary, careening between sex, comedy and murder, Rent Boy is a hysterical romp through the worlds of contemporary culture and crime.

Details ?Indiana ?a swirling, darkly comic prose is a slice of scrambled social commentary in the life of a rent boy / architect / waiter. From appendage sucking to organ theft via champagne and cocaine, the cartoon, hedonistic life is increasingly unseated by a looming morbidity? List (UK)
