About Sparkle Books Alberta, Canada
Biblio member since 2008
I search out used books on principle to highlight their value, keep them circulating and out of the landfill (and just because I am compelled to tell people to "read this"!)
From the publisher
First line
This book is a history not of sex but of sexual desire.
From the rear cover
'"Written in the Flesh" is bold, important, and maddeningly fun to argue with. Everyone interested in the history of sexuality and of desire will need to engage, if not agree with it.'-Thomas W. Laqueur, Professor of History, University of California, Berkeley, author of "Solitary Sex: A Cultural History of Masturbation"
