Tinto Brass releases novel, 'Madam Pee'

(ANSA) - Rome, October 24 - The latest from Italian director Tinto Brass, known for his erotic films, comes in the form of a story first dreamt up as a screenplay in 1972 and now on bookshelves as the novel Madame Pipì (Madam Pee), written with his partner, psychoanalyst Caterina Varzi.
    The novel tells the story of 40-year-old Antoinette, a restroom attendant in a Paris restaurant, and Francois, a 30-year-old director of a psychiatric hospital, and the perverse relationship that forms between the two, eventually involving Antoinette's mildly autistic son in a key role.
