Too many sex-negative stories2
Most of the stories in this volume are clever, well-written, and fashionably postmodern. But that doesn't make them sexy! Story after story, I kept feeling that many of these authors just plain don't like sex. A few stories are fun and sexy, but these are very rare. The book has sex galore, but very little of it is what I'd call erotic.

A smorgasboard of eroticsim for who .......1
I gave this book a one star rating since half the stories were from the USA not making this an INTERNATIONAL book to be sold in the USA by any means. Missing from the anthology were any stories from India (considering its one of the only countries with temples dedicated to the erotica) and only one story from Japan (a dumb story I might add that included scenes of girls rubbing bacon on their bodies)

Most of the stories are from what I would consider unpublished writers with the exception of Anne Rice's 'Beuty's Release' ... The stories are also a real eclectic mix and altough some of the are good its hard to have to search for 100 good pages in an almost 600 page book.

an anthology of assorted eroticism5
This is a definite read. A collection of truly beautiful treasures from acclaimed international writers including Anne Rice, J.G. Ballard, Regine Deforges, and Michael Perkins (just to name a few). Due to the explicit content, however, perhaps the suggested reading age is 17. Otherwise, this is a fortunate find.
