Best Lesbian Erotica 2004

Summary: Another Smashing Hit for BLE
Review: Tristan Taormino has done it again. She and Amber Hollibaugh have picked 23 gems. They are hot, hot to the touch and the thought. There are several returning authors whose work continues to press boundaries and push buttons. They've added an international flavor this time with "Farang Traveler or, A Girl's Guide to Patpong" by Chris Lombardi and "Redemption" by Michael M. Hernandez, heartfelt, sly and wicked by turns. But Toni Amato humbles me. His clarity translates into painfully, joyfully brilliant prose and I am awed at the way that boi captures completely what I tremble to touch. This is an awesome collection, worthy of any erotica shelf.

Summary: run-away success, AGAIN!
Review: Wow.
I picked up my copy of BLE 2004 after finding out it had won the lambda literary award this year for erotica. I could not be happier. This is the second year this anthology has won the award... unfortunately the 2003 edition sold out before I could get a copy.
If for nothing else,this book is worth $14.95 just for the first story in it... hot, hot, hot!
