Sex Still Spoken Here: An Anthology
by Carol Queen
IPPY Award-winning Sex Still Spoken Here is not just a steamy, eclectic mix of hot stories, it's also an inspiring call to action, staking another fierce claim on importance of voicing the erotic. The Erotic Reading Circle-held monthly since 2006 at San Francisco's Center for Sex & Culture-is a community where writers put words to our complex desires and longings, and in which our erotic stories are celebrated and honored, not dismissed. This collection is culled from that Circle, representing the many writers who've dared to wrestle with the erotic muse.
