This is what erotic lit is all about ....,

This review is from: Venus in Lace (Victorian Erotic Classics) (Paperback)
What a pleasant surprise, a Marcus Von Heller book from a 1992 publishing run by Carroll & Graf publishing that hasn't been snapped up for reprint by the new erotic powerhouses such as Blue Moon or Virgin publishing. The book is a sensitive (relatively speaking) erotic tale of a young 20 yr old boy living in a small backwoods coastal village in modern Spain. Our hero, Avelino, with the strict, simple and religious small town upbringing meets up with Janice, a single 30ish tourist that has come to the small town to enjoy the local flavour. And, enjoy the local flavour she does as our hero scales cliffs in order to spy on her sunbathing in the nude every afternoon. Avinio finally makes himself known to Janice and she wastes no time in aleviating him of both his curiosity and his virginity. (I have to admit that I was a little skeptical at this point that he managed to maintain his purity in an environment where even Quasimodo can find a good looking girlfriend) Since little escapes the small town folk and his parents, Avinio is told that he has disgraced his family forcing him to accept Janice's prodding and invitation to accompany her to Barcelona to live with her and enjoy the bright lights and city life. In Barcelona, Avinio meets some more of Janice's friends and followers and manages to maintain a perspective on his life as he now has more and more women fawning over him and leading him on a path of .... well we can't get into that here ... As in all good erotic novels, there is a story to be told and a plot to follow. We follow our hero into the big city and into the beds of what I would consider some very interesting women until he runs amok of some of Janice's seedier friends. The book is a very easy read and even though I may not have liked the saccarine sweet ending, (usually a slap in the face when you're reading erotic lit) but, by the time I got to that part of the book I was more than satisfied with the story. For the first time reader of erotic lit to the seasoned pro this is an enjoyable book ....

This review is from: Venus in Lace (Victorian Erotic Classics) (Paperback)
This story about the coming-of-age of a young Spaniard is quite a read and will keep you engaged for a good evening or two. The author seems more literary than most other such writers I've come across, and you'll definitely be entertained.
