Long before The Sexual Life of Catherine M, Grandes was dazzling the literary world with this highly charged novel about a young woman embarking on a series of sexual adventures. Lulu's journey begins won the night she loses her virginity to Pablo - her brother's best friend and twelve years her senior. Their relationship is obsessive - not possessive - and their appetites for new erotic territory are insatiable.

Lulu's brother friend Pablo exploits Lulu's puppy love by taking her virginity at an early age. Her sexual appetite grows as Pablo introduces her to new unchartered erotic territories. Her thirst for sexual discovery with or without him leads to all our sexual fantasies. This book was a gift to me and after reading it, my erotic collection has grown furiously. A great read into intence erotic desires and complex relationships.

Format:Hardcover
In a long tradition of spanish independent films the theme of sexual exploration and discovery moves into the "dark" realms of sexual violence and the body as a pure object. the film looks at several complex levels of being from capitalistic values through to gender.

This book is 'literature' with a fair amount of sex in it, rather than erotica per se. It's an interesting story about real-sounding rough-edged people, and you shouldn't buy it if your sexually squeamish, but then if you're into squeamish sex I suspect this isn't the book for you.

A cold documentary
`Lulu' is too big a name for this documentary text, if one compares it with Frank Wedekind's play or G.W. Pabst's movie with the sexiest actress ever screened, Louise Brooks. Read more
