Therefore, enjoy these finely crafted tales, but see the last one at your personal danger.
Footsucker by Geoff Nicholson. Sly and darkly funny, this novel chronicles the experiences of a base fetishist whom discovers the feet that are perfect then needs to cope with the fact of this girl attached with them. a meditation that is intelligent the genuine price of obsession and objectification. (part note: a new gentleman we came across after teaching a kink workshop used to be therefore adamant that i will look at this guide which he went house and came ultimately back together with his very own content as a present. We don’t remember his name but i will be ever grateful for that work of literary generosity.)
A brief history of Barbed Wire by Jeff Mann. Gorgeous and unsettling. Mann is just a wonderfully skilled author who has penned a few of the most poetic information of kinky homointercourseual sex I’ve ever read.
But I’m questionable about detailing it right here due to its poor grasp of permission. All of the guide comprises of brief tales, each more gorgeous as compared to final. The final tale in the book is a novella, also it’s… super fucked up. It’s basically a tale about extended assault that is sexual through the POV of the kidnapper. We have a problem each time a journalist has me determining because of the values that underlie their stories—in this instance, leathermen and bears are good guys, kinky homointercourseual sex is hot, homophobia is bad, etc.—and mainly shows their figures in consenting circumstances, then again portrays those exact exact exact same values as suitable for intimate attack and appears to expect me personally, being a audience, become up to speed with all the assaulter as being a protagonist. Mann’s novella reminds me personally of Fifty Shades of Grey: nominally kinky, but really of a clear situation of punishment without ever acknowledging it. Read more →
