Naked She Lay: An Anthology of Classic Erotic Verse

Rating:
Summary: Erotica for the senses
Review: This treasure trove of classic erotic verse is for those who like their erotica subtle and engrossing. you will not find crude pornoographic passeges here, rather timeless literature which fire the imagination and make the soul desire. The works presented here are rather daring and provocative especially when one takes into account the time they were written. Poetic words come together to give the listener quite the stimulating image and you soon find yourself catching your breath wondering how one got away with writing such a graphic piece. One has to ponder if people of years past were more liberated then we give them credit for.
There is a wide variety of works presented here. Some are mere romantic notions with a touch of passion, others quite graphic and revealing. there are passages on love, sex, infidelity same sex attraction and even on masturbation. I would caution though that one truly has to be a lover of the English word to fully appreciate such a collection of erotic verse. No doubt listneing to such pros and poetry is the best way to enjoy works such as these. It was something else to listen too and very enticing. I found myself even wondering what the readers might look like in the nude for some of them had the sexiest voice. After listening to a few pieces you will find yourself drifting, and undressing strangers around you. It has this effect. it manages to withhold the mystery of sexual pleasure yet allows you to go wild with your imagination. Once you are done listening to this audiobook you will approach a new erotic encounter with a different notion.
This audiobook contains two CD's. A variety of readers both male and female narrate the passages. There are musical interludes throughout the readings adding that much more to the audio production. A must for lovers of poetry, erotica and for those who enjoy audiobooks with a flair. Naxos has done it again.
