Pleasure Bound: Victorian Sex Rebels and the New Eroticism by Deborah Lutz
2.0
I wanted to love this book, I really did. And I'm not sorry for reading it since much of the information contained therein is fascinating!
But -- and this is a big but -- Lutz's writing is impressively boring. It takes real talent to make information about porn boring, but she manages it. Despite the simple language used, it felt like reading the kind of textbook that you keep spacing out during to save your brain, but then have to go back and read again.
