It is equal parts raunchy and precious. Mingus spares no detail when it comes to fellatio, convincing a woman to be a prostitute, siphoning gas out of a car, or playing some serious double bass. I know we live in New York and this is the twenty-first century, but would I be committing sexual suicide? I\u2019m feeling like this could cut to the chase and expedite the inevitable.

Old-timey etiquette dictated that a book and flowers were the only gifts an unmarried lady could receive with propriety from a gentleman. Were it that simple.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d say it\u2019s all in the presentation: if you can manage to frame it with something self-deprecating, like \u201cI\u2019m giving this to you in spite of the potential creepiness of the fellatio\/prostitution angle because I love it\u201d that could, potentially, disarm. If I were the recipient of such a gift, it would depend on how well I knew the giver, and whether I thought you were (a) sharing it innocently or (b) being somewhat insinuating. Since in this case it appears to be the latter, I\u2019d probably hold off.<\/p>\n<p>All that said: that book rules.<\/p>\n<p><em>I\u2019m starting in on <\/em>The Paris Review<em>\u2019s interview archive, and I\u2019m a little overwhelmed!
