Delta Of Venus: Erotica by Anaïs Nin by Anaïs Nin

5.0

I found it really interesting to read erotica written by a woman during the 40s. I doubt there were many women who were doing so openly and it was interesting to get a woman’s perspective on the genre from back then. And it was definitely erotic! Shockingly so in many ways. There were some stories that I feel like do not age well (there is one story with pedophilia), but for the most part I was pretty pleased! The reading was fascinating as well as unnervingly sexy.
