wiredweird said Interesting compilation. This very enjoyable collection includes commentary, history, the "good parts" from classic and modern erotica, and a wide-ranging assortment of artworks. Most of the latter appear as thumbnails - often literally no bigger than the nail on your thumb. That makes appreciation of the fine points difficult, and renders busier images all but illegible.Still, it's a pleasant collection for an otherwise lonely night. Although wide-ranging, it quite deliberately avoids the dark side. That suits my tastes quite nicely, but decide for yourself whether that's an omission you'd miss. A good one, but not the star of any collection.-- wiredweird. a good conversational book I have not yet to finish reading this all the way thru but the book has beautiful and interesting illustrations and really digs into the history of erotica without getting the reader bored.. Five Stars Amazon Customer Nice collection, very tastefully done
