Altar of Venus

I enjoyed this erotic account of a rich, aristocratic man's sexual adventures. The unnamed male character regales us with his insatiable stories that begin when he was at a rather young age and continue throughout his life. The author's descriptions of France give a more picturesque feel to this erotic story. This is a very well written Victorian novel that enthralled me from beginning to end. I cannot elaborate on the plot more, for it is simply about a wealthy man's sexual escapades -- suffice it to say that this is an amazing, erotic read by an anonymous, albeit very imaginative author.

Told completely in the first person our young hero recounts his sexual education from a verty very young age when he was spanked by the governess, and, beginning to like it, he and the governess increased their daily spankings and fondlings to a ritual .... As all good things come to an end we follow tha 'author' to the playground as he now has access to girls his own age who teach him quickly how to play a game called 'married' By page 41 of the book our hero catches one of his best friends mother coming out of the shower naked, and since they were both alone, and since she recently divorced the young lady then really gives our hero an education that he not only will not forget but changes his main goal in life to the seduction of as many women as he can get his hands on .... The story then takes us on his travels to France and his experiences with numerous women from the highest bred to the prostitutes of Paris ..... The seduction scenes are absolutely the most fabulously written ever and the reader will find it hard to forget them .... I have read this book before many many years ago, probably under a different title and also probably in one of those multi-novel books that were published by Caroll & Graf in the late 1900's .... Tried to find the book but no luck ....
