May Book Club
Erotic Thriller
Thu 31st May

May is our month for reading an Erotic Thriller, and after a close vote, the book we'll be reading this month is:

"Dream Story" by Arthur Schnitzler (128 pages. Widely available)
Amidst a short spat between a married couple, the husband, a doctor, is summoned to the bedside of a dying man. So begins a series of involvements throughout the night in increasingly dangerous and deviant sexual adventures for Fridolin, who taken by a friend to a "secret" party, is forced to make choices that seem beyond his control. The dream-like events are made more frighteningly real by Schnitzler's powerfully detailed descriptions, as little by little Fridolin gives in to the demands of the secret celebrants.Order may be restored, but the desperation, the depravity of the human mind remains just below the surface of the conscious willing of good.

A doctor himself and close friend of Sigmund Freud, Arthur Schnitzler was one of the most important playwrights and novelists of early 20th-century Austrian literature.

Grab yourself a copy and we'll see you at our book club.

For the first half of 2012 we have taken the decision to focus our erotic reading on a specific genre each month so that we get a whole spectrum of naughty fiction. See below for the themes we have planned, as usual we will take a vote between three books at the end of each month to decide what to read next. If you have any suggestions for a book which matches one of our genre's then please Contact Us and let us know
