One of the reviews on this app says
Dead Dove Do Not Eat
I took that as a challenge and maybe shouldn’t have…

Incest, rape, racism, beastiality, and pedophilia

This is basically gay Victorian porn and maybe not even really by Jack Saul, but I find Jack Saul to be so incredibly interesting that I had to read this. It wasn't great, but it was an interesting glimpse at a dangerous expression of pleasure during a much different time.

I would say slay Eveline except for the racism and paedophilia. And that with the udder. Don’t do that :(

Read out of historical interest after reading Bad Gays. I hesitate to give it a star rating because, wow. It’s certainly a window into Victorian sexuality, for all that that entails.

Well, what can I say?
I've read a LOT of smut. I'm not easily shocked. But this? Wow!
I think perhaps I am surprised at just how detailed this is as it was written in 1881.
There's a whole range of activities described in this book. Not for the easily offended!

An enjoyable smut fest.
