Amazon.com might list May 28 as the arrival date for Aiden Shaw's eagerly-anticipated new biography "My Undoing: Love in the Thick of Sex, Drugs, Pornography and Prostitution", but if you cruise down to your local Borders you might already find a copy like we did on Wednesday afternoon. The versatile porn actor-director-writer-activist says the book was about ten years in the making and that he has no regrets about his porn career, his previous drug issues, or his HIV status. So far we're only up to the second chapter but it's already earned pride of place on our bookshelf thanks to its preface, which relates a torrid sex scene that ends with a broken condom and a director yelling "CUT!" Sometimes the line between art and life isn't as wide as you think.
