The Romance of Lust

First published in 1873, The Romance of Lust is the story of Charlie, an incredibly well-endowed man with insatiable appetites, who openly describes his sexual life, including his relationships with his sisters, his governesses, and his male and female friends. A highly controversial book that was not published in the US for nearly 100 years after its first appearance, The Romance of Lust confronts many taboos and fetishes.
