2002-12-09 definitely not typical Nexus

This was a pleasant surprise belied by the tacky cover of my copy (not the same as what you can see on the Amazon website as I write this); I think I read every word. This should be filed under erotica as covert decent lit., together - at least on my shelves - with the likes of Carrie's Story by Molly Weatherfield, Pauline Reage, and Pierre Louyes. Real people (well some of them - I shall overlook the sub-black-lace hunky white teeshirt and jeans artist who gets the girl in the end) elegantly described scenarios, and quite an uncomfortable denoument.

We are not talking the western cannon here, but I do not plan to throw my copy away (unless I replace it with a new copy, with better cover art, simply so that I am not embarassed to let people find it on my bookshelves).
