Bad Sex more fun than good sex,
By AUSTIN (LOS ANGELES, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bad Sex: A Book of Stories (Paperback)
Bad Sex is an anthology of short stories, each about bad sex. The stories are entertaining, sometimes funny, sometimes rebarbative; never dull.It is a refreshing book, if only because, our commercial culture (which is the same thing as "pop" culture) is so intent on selling sex as a Good Thing, and using that Good Thing to sell so many other things (most of which have nothing at all to do with actual sexual behavior), that any discourse about sex as other than good, wonderful, and immaculately satisfying, has been obliterated. It is also true that the Devil really does have all the best tunes . . . bad sex makes a more interesting read than good sex. Which brings up this question: (you have to be old to remember when all sex used to be bad) Wasn't sex more fun when even good sex was risqué . . . bad? |
