Synopsis
New risky fiction -- with no names attached.
If authors could write their sex scenes anonymously, would they be less reticent? Would they include the stuff they didn't want their mom, or the newspapers, to read?
Here are twenty-four short pieces of fiction on the theme of sex, by twenty-four prominent authors. Heather O'Neil, Lisa Moore, Michael Winter, Zoe Whittall, Pasha Malla, Francesca Ekwuyasi, Drew Hayden Taylor, Tamara Faith Berger and Susan Swan are among these. But we won't tell you who wrote what.
The pieces are uncensored, unpredictable; they veer from graphic to subtle to surreal. There is straight sex and gay sex. There is frustrated sex. There is sex that happens entirely through texts. Not one story is set in a canoe.
This is a book of erotic imaginings by some of Canada's most sophisticated and respected writers, working in total freedom, secretly.
