Tales of Tongue Fu

A satire of New Age gurus that takes the form of a psychedelic episode of "Kung Fu." The setting is Camp Crap, an acronym for Coincidence Rationalization and Practice, where several gurus have gathered along with their loyal followers. Tongue Fu is the son of a Japanese Kamikaze pilot and American nurse who was exposed to radiation from A-bombs while pregnant. As a result Tongue Fu was born with a 15-inch tongue. His mother refused to breast feed him and deserted him. So Tongue Fu was raised by his father in a monastery. As an adult Tongue Fu became a guru. He could use his tongue with equal skill as a martial arts tool and to satisfy a woman's libido. He attends a summer camp for gurus where he meets a bizarre cast of characters. Among others: Anal Roberts-a scatological evangelist who comes complete with a born-again rock'n'roll star, this faith-healer is called upon to perform a cosmic abortion. Baba Blabla-who breaks his silence of 30 years. Why did he make this decision? What does he finally reveal? Will he now get his own TV talk show? Rosebud Zwaliyeh-a civil rights activist who evolves into a feminist and discovers the missing link between falling in love and joining a cult. Tongue Fu's misadventures include "Visit to a Nude Exorcist Parlor" and "The Contraception Carnival" as he explores the shady side of the so-called spiritual revolution and loses his innocence.Krassner, Paul is the author of 'Tales of Tongue Fu ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781579510800 and ISBN 1579510809.
