Overview
A Modern Woman’s Pillow Book” is a delightful collection of erotic love poems, originally created as an intimate gift for the author’s wife. It is the voice of a man speaking to the woman he loves, expressing in a lyrical form what many men might feel, but rarely vocalize.
Startlingly honest, explicit but not vulgar, “A Modern Woman’s Pillow Book” reads like a juicy romantic story that begins with the first moment of contact and ends with a heart-warming declaration of love. There is a clear sense of a long-term relationship conveyed, an intimacy and genuine tenderness that can only come with time. A kind of mature youthfulness emanates from these highly sensual vignettes, sparkling with playful enthusiasm. It’s what we all hope for – a passionate love that, rather than cooling with time, only burns brighter!
Elegantly bound in burgundy-red Japanese silk, the individual poems are separated by gossamer vellum pages, decorated with a white-on-white Oriental pattern of birds and flowers. This is an exquisite, intimate gift for a woman and man in love.
