Présentation de l'éditeur
Guided by the genius of Susie Bright, 'the avatar of American erotica' (New York Times), the Best American Erotica series has sold an astonishing 450,000 copies. Now the latest edition promises to offer readers a whole new level of risqué reading, mingling tales by the genre's most sought-after veterans and up-and-comers with some of the biggest names in contemporary literature.
Best American Erotica 2007 traces the 'Lolita Gap' - stories that show boomers reflecting on their past sexual glories while mightily trying to control the young people they envy. 'Envy', by Kathryn Harrison, features a psychiatrist who discovers that the one client he had sex with happens to be his long lost daughter. Dennis Cooper's 'The Sluts' tells the explicit story of an extraordinary young hustler working his Johns. And Jessica Cutler's novel 'The Washingtonienne' follows a young woman as she drags Washington's grey-haired elite down in to a scandal pit with nothing more than the crook of her pretty little finger. For readers who enjoy straight, gay, disciplined, and other forms of erotic fantasy, Best American Erotica 2007 brings the genre's greatest series to an exciting new climax.
