One never knows in what form the imperturbable PB will materialize. It has been sighted in guerrilla theater performances, on YouTube, Facebook, in small press art-lit mags, in commie porn chapbooks, posters, paintings, and other subterranean venues. Black Scat Books published a full-colour trade paperback edition devoted to Pink Buddha\u2019s inspirational (and educational!) mantras in 2016.<\/p>\n<p><em>Kolaj Magazine<\/em> reviewed the book in <em>Kolaj<\/em> #16.<\/p>\n<p>We wrote in our review:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>\u201cLloyd\u2019s previous book, the sold out <em>Little Red Book of Commie Porn<\/em>, imagined the pictures of an oppressed pornographer in Communist China.
