The book is supposedly written by a young student at one of the great Universities in England. The book gives an interesting sight into the attitudes towards sex amongst some young men and women living a hundred years ago. The young dandy devotes a big part of his every-day-life to making love with various young women and I find the way he describes the love-making very enjoyable. This is a book about straight sex, genital and oral, couples, threesomes, foursomes. The women are definitively not only objects of mens' desires; they are wholeheartedly enjoying themselves with their teachers at the University as well as with our young dandy and his friends. Naturally we also encounter sexy and willing maids always game for a ride. What I personally like best is the feeling that I get of a man filled with a general lust for life, for love-making, for women. The way women look, the way they smell, the way they feel, the way they touch our dandy. He enjoys them in every shape, colouring and form. And he lets the women enjoy him and his tadger/boner/stiffstander...! I wonder what happened to him; was he one of the young men dying in the trenches during the World War? I also wonder where I could find Part I of the dandy's memoirs? Being a gynaecologist I can't resist being pragmatic and wonder what the women did in order to protect themselves against pregnancies. It's obvious that condoms were used at the time, but how often and by whom?

the joy d'esprit and the orgiastic impetus of Victorian times 25 May 2009
By Luca Graziuso - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is the sexual bildungsroman of a young Englishman from his youthful days on the countryside to his education days at Oxford and finally as a sexually adventurous young man in the wild streets of London. Having the free time and money that comes with a privileged upbringing, spurred by a free spirit and a tentalizing desire for sexual pleasures we are exposed to the indulgence of fantasies amid the London elite. At times all-too-fanciful and rakish without any hint of prudish limits experiences become an end in themselves with but pleasure and fulfillment of desires as the only end.
It is a fascinating historical record - properly speaking - for here the scions of the lesiured aristocracy are here able to devote their days and nights in the pursuit of pure unadulterated pleasure. Rubert Mountjoy divulges details of a sybaritic lifestyle in frank unexpurgated joy d'esprit that albeit does not fail to expose the current of sexuality surging beneath the repressed morality heralded during Victorian times. Mountjoy's memoir was first circulated about England during the first World War and it regained a revival in lieu of recent interest in the subject from connoisseurs and scademics alike. For those looking to find orgies and role-playing you will be satisfied, whereas readers looking to become engaged with a lust-filled impetus of repressed days will have plenty to enjoy. It is not without literary merit and deserves to be read more widely. For those that enjoyed reading the Pearl and the Oyster, this will no doubt prove a dandy...

a fantasy 3 April 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
this book mainly deals with the protagnists sexual adventures and contains some elements of incest. in this story the hero is potrayed as having unbound enthuasism for his pleasure and it is generqally an okay story.
