Description

The title is not gratuitous. The play is based on a true story of a police officer caught in the act of raping a 13 year-old boy. In a pointless cascade of atrocities, the case gets worse. The play is told through three perspectives: the expert witness who participated in the ensuing civil litigation, his disaffected girlfriend, and a pithy commentator. Songs by the Americana Desolation Punk Rock band Crying 4 Kafka emanate throughout. The Saint of Fucked-Up Karma was performed in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, California in the summer of 2013.

Author Biography:

Paul R. Abramson is a professor of psychology at UCLA and one of the world's leading authorities on sex. His books, published by the likes of Oxford, MIT, and W.W. Norton, are redemptive narratives, enlivened by science and the law, that offer timeless escape from ideologues and bigots. Classic examples include With Pleasure: Thoughts on the nature of human sexuality; Sexual Rights in America: The ninth amendment and the pursuit of happiness; Romance in the Ivory Tower: The rights and liberty of conscience; Sex Appeal: Six ethical principles of the 21st century; and Screwing Around with Sex: Essays, indictments, anecdotes, and asides. Paul also blogs for asylum4renegadespress.com; his oeuvre is chronicled on abramsonuclapsych.com.
