Review

From the beginning of time, erotic art has played an enormous role in how cultures and societies are viewed by history. But scant attention has been paid to the artists themselves, leaving a hole in the study of how erotica reflects how society views its sexuality. In this groundbreaking work, contemporary writers of erotica reflect on how their work originates, how their sexuality shapes their words, and, more important, how their words have affected their sexuality. Noted erotica writer M. Christian has brought together a who's who of erotica to deliver an eye-opening, thought-provoking examination of the craft of writing about sex, which includes each writer's favorite erotic story as an illustration of this group's diverse approach to sexuality and language.
