The NSFW Files

Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The runaway success of Fifty Shades of Grey made erotica mainstream, but can erotica really be written off as derivative fiction read by suburban moms for titillation? As Karl Wolff investigates in his new collection of essays, erotica belongs in a vast literary landscape, a genre that hides hidden treasures and rare delights. He covers erotica from The Song of Songs to Nic Kelman's girls: A Paean; from Gynecocracy to Matriarchy: Freedom in Bondage; from City of Night to Naked Lunch; Story of the Eye to Story of O; and a bawdy bouquet of graphic novels. The NSFW Files includes essays on erotica written by a Nobel laureate, an outsider artist, a surrealist, and a French prisoner, among many more. Most important, the essay collection offers an answer to the question, "What dirty book should I read next?"

Book Description
'A woman writes a story for her married lover. Something she always thought of as a fairy tale. A fairy tale with a dark side, like the best of fairy tales...' Occupied France, 1943. France's most shameful hour. In these dark times, Dominique starts an illicit affair with a distinguished publisher, a married man. He introduces her to the Resistance, and she comes to have a taste for the clandestine life - she has never felt more alive. Shortly after the war, to prove something to her lover, she writes an erotic novel about surrender, submission and shame. Never meant to be published, Story of O becomes a national scandal and success, the world's most famous erotic novel. But what is the story really about - Dominique, her lover, or the country and the wartime past it would rather forget? From one of our foremost writers, the acclaimed and multi-award-winning Steven Carroll, comes O, a reimagining of what might have been, the story of a novel that took on a life of its own and mirrored its times in a way the author never dreamt of. 'He is one of the best we've ever had.' Geraldine Brooks

"THE RETURN TO THE CHATEAU Story of Ois widely acknowledged to be one of the most famous erotic novels of all time. Graham Greene described it as 'A rare thing, a pornographic book well written and without a trace of obscenity'. Harold Pinter called it 'A remarkable piece of work', while Brian Aldiss proclaimed 'I do believe that Pauline Reage has confounded all her critics and made pornography (if that is what it is) an art'. In Story of O-Part II, O returns to the place of her initiation, an elegant chateau outside Paris, where she submits completely to the sexual whims of one man, her lover. Story of Ois also available from Corgi Books."
Carrie's Story
Author: Molly WeatherfieldPublisher:
ISBN: 9781573441568
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Carrie's tale of uncompromising sexual adventure is like the Story of O starring a Berkeley Ph.D. in comparative lit (who moonlights as a bike messenger) with a penchant for irony, self-analysis and anal sex. Set in San Francisco and the Napa valley, Carrie's Story takes the reader on a journey into a netherworld of slave auctions, training regimes, and human 'ponies' preening for dressage competitions. 'My favourite neo-Victorian erotic romance writer... Bring on the ponies!' - Susie Bright
