The Bloomsbury guide to erotic literature

The realm of the erotic is that of sexual desire. In this work Jane Mills defines erotic in its widest possible sense, encompassing an astonishing range of writing, from comedy and farce to romance and lyricism, from the satirical and perverted to the sensuous and plain racy. Her selection of erotic prose, poetry and drama from around the world cuts across an extraordinary range of countries and cultures, making this guide unique.
