The Romance of Lust, or Early Experiences: The Complete Volumes 1-4 - Paperback

by Anonymous (Author), Nickelby Wessington-Worth (Foreword by)

Perhaps one of the most plagiarised novels of all time - and definitely one of the most pornographic, The Romance of Lust written between 1873 and 1876 has endured countless reproductions in the form of excerpts, translations and rescripts by assumed authors but throughout it all has survived - as in this edition - in its complete text of the original four volumes. From banned and burnt to legitimatized as an historical piece of writing, The narrative and language reads as fresh as if it were modern erotica and still possesses the unique ability to shock, arouse and make you laugh all at the same time.
