La librairie des livres interdits

Marc Levy

Description

In 2009, Maxim Jakubowski, editor of The Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica series, stated that "Jeremy Edwards leads the pack of a new scintillating generation of American erotica writers, who combine wit and sexiness in equal parts."

This full-length volume collects 41 of Edwards's best short stories and vignettes from the heyday of erotica anthologies and webmagazines. This is explicit but elegant fiction about smart, likable, offbeat, self-actualized characters and the pleasures of eros, language, and laughter. These stories feature men with women, women with women, and women with women and men.

The titles alone reveal the author's quirky and imaginative approach to the erotic story. Meet "Laura the Laugher" and "Dr. Olsen's Loquacious Automaton." Hear one character's "Reflections from the Art Museum," and explore another's "Passive Vocabulary." What's sexy about the word "Whom"? What do "The Same Fifty Taxis" have to do with love? The author's answers lie in this collection.
