PRLog -- According to Robert Rosen his newest book, Beaver Street: A History of Modern Pornography, is an investigative memoir. A Vanity Fair Hot Type pick, Beaver Street was published by London indie Headpress in the U.K. last year and in the U.S. in June. “In Beaver Street," says Rosen, “I define ‘modern pornography’
as the fusion of erotica and computers, which first occurred at High Society magazine in 1983, when they launched their ‘free’ phone-sex lines. The book explores what I witnessed over a 16-year period as an editor for such magazines as High Society, Swank, Stag, and D-Cup, and combines these first-hand accounts with research and reporting to create a detailed insider's portrait of a multi-billion-
dollar industry in a state of traumatic upheaval. Michael Musto of the Village Voice called Beaver Street ‘entertaining, insightful, and hot.’ I'm also the author of Nowhere Man: The Final Days of John Lennon, which was an international bestseller.
