A rich and sumptuous journey
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
If you like history and travel and the bizarre you will like this. It takes a journey through Europe - Paris, Rome, Istanbul, Prague, Amsterdam and our heroine Clara is subjected to weird erotic encounters under the tutelage of the Count. It is also quite romantic, I thought, with evocative passages about cities and clothes. Not typical Black Lace but one to lose yourself in and enjoy...
But I loved this book!

I have finally been prompted to write a review. As a historian myself and fan of the author's first book 'Unhallowed Rites' I think Clara's journey through Europe and various sexual experiences is erotic and fascinating and a pretty accurate depiction of the Grand Tour. The best sexual characters (eg the boy castrato and female perfumer) are not the usual Black Lace cliches. Is all this too European - or dare I say it - too subtle for most people?
A fascinating erotic travelogue - hot and very perverse

This book takes us on a sexual and geographical journey. I liked the themes of the senses and the somewhat bizarre encounters Clara gets involved in. I also loved the erotic clothes and settings.
