Anthologies (non-poetry); Erotic fiction

Series: Everyman's Library POCKET CLASSICS

A beautiful gift hardback of some of the greatest erotic literature written. Including stories by Anais Nin, Edith Wharton, Anton Chekhov, E.

M Forster, Pauline Re age, D.H. Lawrence, Choderlos de Laclos and Sarah Waters amongst others. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY POCKET CLASSICS

A perfect gift of timeless erotic stories ranging from ancient Greek myth to modern stories of longing and lust. This beautifully jacketed Everyman's Library Pocket Classics hardcover anthology has a full-cloth binding and silk ribbon marker. Accounts of ardour and transgression also flow from unexpected pens- an astonishingly explicit scene from an unfinished novel by Edith Wharton, and Guy de Maupassant's heated tale of a young peasant woman offering her breast to a starving stranger on a train. Hunger is the fierce undercurrent to these stories- the gnawing lust of one lover for another, or the greedy pursuit of a particular inclination. The elegant depravity of an eighteenth-century French aristocrat, the dreamlike seductions of an Egyptian jinni in the form of a snake, the brutal anonymity of a highway truck-stop encounter--the stories in this richly varied collection reveal that the urge to articulate sexual desire is as inventive as it is timeless.
