Delta of Venus

From influential feminist artist and essayist Anais Nin, Delta of Venus is one of the most important works of modern female erotica and a joyous display of the erotic imagination (The New York Times Book Review).In this story collection, Anais Nin pens a lush, magical world where the characters of her imagination possess the most universal of desires and exceptional of talents. Among these provocative stories, a Hungarian adventurer seduces wealthy women then vanishes with their money; a veiled woman selects strangers from a chic restaurant for private trysts; and a Parisian hatmaker named Mathilde leaves her husband for the opium dens of Peru. This is an extraordinarily rich and exotic collection from a master of erotic writing.Inventive, sophisticated . . . highly elegant naughtiness. -- Cosmopolitan
