This well-loved copy of Jacqueline Susann’s scandalous 1969 novel “The Love Machine” bears the scars of its tumultuous journey through the years. Published at the height of the sexual revolution, the book caused a sensation with its salacious portrayal of the American power elite and their decadent lifestyles. Susann, a former actress and model, drew inspiration from her own experiences in the entertainment industry, crafting a thinly veiled satire of the high-powered men who ruled Hollywood and television.

Despite its racy content, “The Love Machine” was a runaway bestseller, cementing Susann’s reputation as a master of the blockbuster novel. This copy, with its tattered exterior and sturdy binding, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Susann’s provocative storytelling. While the lack of a dust jacket may disappoint purists, the well-preserved pages invite readers to immerse themselves in this groundbreaking work of American fiction, a daring exploration of power, sexuality, and the price of success.
