“Lyrical and graphic…But it’s not all salacious play-by-play. The
sex scenes are interspersed with abstract musings about the nature of
sex. One of the central ideas, which I will now clinically paraphrase to
conform to standards of decency, is this: the definition of the erotic
is arousal, not climax…the book’s argument reverberates beyond the
erotic. The writing I most enjoy now delights in the moment’s contours
and textures, not surprising plot twists. The best work seduces the
reader through nuanced details and observations, and does away with
italics and exclamation points. It takes pleasure in the ambiguous
interstices of life while dismissing its flagrant resolutions. In short,
it arouses.”
