Johnny Behind The Deuce

In the fall of 2001, underground writer and publisher Gene Gregorits teamed up with punk rock legend Lydia Lunch for an experimental project called "Johnny Behind the Deuce", a gritty working-class horror novel that dealt with themes central to both of them: drugs, sexual violence, poverty, and mental illness. Gregorits had developed the book based on his experiences as a nightwatchman at a Harrisburg, PA YMCA and as an emergency room security guard at the Harrisburg Hospital, during 1996 and 1997. Lunch began writing sections for the book in 2000, and when she and Gregorits broke up in 2002, the book also was torn in half. Unpublished and unread for over 12 years, Monastrell Books' Johnny Behind The Deuce collects all known material written by Gregorits and many of the author's notes for this ambitious, fractured, and ultimately doomed project.
