Literary Erotica: The Gentlemen’s Club by Emmanuelle de Maupassant
About The Book:
Set in Victorian London, in 1898, The Gentlemen’s Club explores the lure of the sensuous and the darker elements of desire.
We live in the wondrous here and now and it is here that our flesh must take its pleasure. Your body is yours and yours alone, but not for long, and never long enough.
So many marvelously steamy episodes, with little or no repetition: it’s nothing shy of an authorial feat, especially as the quality of the writing is superb throughout.
Emmanuelle de Maupassant writes our darker motivations, the unsettling, and the erotic.
Authors inspiring her writing include Angela Carter, Sarah Waters, Michel Faber, Margaret Atwood and Donna Tartt, Fay Weldon, A.S Byatt and Jeanette Winterson.
