Product Description

Launched last year with a provocative volume that sold more than 30,000 copies worldwide in less than six months, editor Maxim Jakubowski's annual series continues with its all-new, totally absorbing and scintillating 2002 edition. Out of thousands of exciting possibilities, Jakubowski has chosen the year's very best forty-five erotic stories by new as well as established talents in the field—among them Poppy Z. Brite, M. Christian, Neil Gaiman, Susannah Indigo, Emma Kaufman, Marilyn Jaye Lewis, Kathryn Ptacek, Lawrence Schimel, Hubert Selby, Jr., Simon Shepperd, and Matt Thorne. Representing erotic writing from six continents and thus providing sexy and sexual adventures of a global scope, the stories in the Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica nonetheless share a standard of excellence and elegance in their explorations of desire, lust, carnality, and passion that are guaranteed to tease and please even the most knowledgeable readers in exquisite ways. So be enticed by Andrew L. Wilson's "The Afternoon of a Venetian Chambermaid" or what unfolds in "The Back of the Store" by Nola Summer, or Cara Bruce's pursuit of "The Perfect O" or the extravagances Ian Philips imagines for "The Devil and Mrs. Faust."

I've had better1
This is a terrible compilation of stories. I know there is better out there. These stories are dry and uninteresting. I have not found a single story in this anthology that catchs my interest a bit. This book actually turns me off.

Pleasant surprise !!!!5
How surprised...and delighted...I was to see my favorite writer of erotica in this book.....Mike Kimera....his story is Deserving Ruth....the first story I ever read by him... He creates wonderful images with his words...This book presents a wide range of story selection and a variety of topics.Well done !

Best New Erotica? I don't think so!1
This is the worst collection of short-story erotica I've ever read. The scenes lack heat, the characters are wooden and the stories are pointless. I like erotica that awakens my senses -- this book is the equivalent of a cold shower. The only stories I found acceptable were Anya Ross's The Editor vs. The Author and Michael Hemmingson's Movements. The rest of the stories in this anthology belong in the Penthouse forum. I shall stick to reading old and literary erotica from the likes of Marquis de Sade. The only new erotica I want to read are the fun novels from the Black Lace series.
