Laura Antoniou (Editor)

Book Description

Series: Rosebud Book | Publication Date: April 1993

A groundbreaking anthology that paved the way for representations of power exchange between women and revolutionized sex-radical culture. From the pens of then-new or emerging authors, these short stories, which broke every rule imposed upon women's fantasies, continue to captivate enthusiasts of the new erotica. Oft-quoted and still vibrant, these stories remain a crucial component of the modern library of sexual adventure.

Editorial Reviews

Review

A terrifically horny compilation of female penned erotica. -- Redeemer

The writing is tough and the stories are politically incorrect, which makes Leatherwomen an outstanding collection. -- SCREW

3.0 out of 5 stars I enjoyed reading these stories aloud..., January 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Leatherwomen (Rosebud) (Mass Market Paperback)

I enjoyed the collection of short stories in Leatherwomen. The book was a gift and I took it on a backpacking trip. After a long day, we lay around the campfire and I read several of the stories aloud. Some of the stories are brutal, like the prison rape scene. Some of them are tender in their eroticism. All of them elicited a interesting response from my appreciative audience. Definitely a nice beginning read for those intrigued by BDSM and the attached culture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insight into women's erotica., July 14, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Leatherwomen (Rosebud Book) (Paperback)

This book is written by Lesbians most likely for Lesbians. But I am a Hetrosexual Dom male, very heavy into BDSM. So why am I reading it? Because I found the book to be very good for helping me gain insight into the female mistique. The stories are all presented from a silightly different angle and so each one is fresh. While it is written by Lesbians I rate it a must read for males that practice bdsm with women. Signed Petruchio (www.petruchio.com

This review is from: Leatherwomen (Rosebud) (Mass Market Paperback)

I was lucky enough to find this book sitting on the shelve in my local gay and lesbian bookstore and quickly snapped it up. The stories are erotic and the writing is superb. You won't like every story in the book but you'll like the majority of them. This book has something for everyone in it. It's bedtime reading to assure happy dreams.
