Product Description

The smouldering follow-up to the international blockbuster 100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed. Melissa P.'s fictionalized memoir, 100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed, became an international literary phenomenon, selling over two million copies worldwide and inspiring profiles in Vanity Fair and The New York Times, as well as a warning from the pope.The Scent of Your Breath, the second installment in the Melissa P.'s series of confessions, is a stirring tale of obsessive love and destructive passion.

Melissa, desperate for love and willing to do anything to find it, is now a successful writer in Rome, living with her new lover, Thomas. But as soon as she meets Viola, a woman from Thomas's past, sexual passion and insecurity mount in tandem, and Melissa is consumed with jealousy.

Written as a confessional letter to her mother, the story that follows is one of dark obsession, violent lust, and soul-destroying talent. Driven by Melissa's singular voice - that unique and compelling combination of impetuous naivete and poetic sophistication that has mesmerized readers in 31 countries - The Scent of Your Breath blurs the boundaries between reality and fantasy and delves deep into the disturbing yet strangely familiar mind of a teenage girl terrorized by love.

DISAPPOINTING 2 Aug 2006
Format:Paperback
Had long awaited the next work from Melissa P having been impressed with her first outing, 100 strokes...

Unfortunetly this, her second offering did not live up to the first. Less graphic and shocking as the first, which isn't surprising after the first, and the nature of this book being more of a life experience tale.

But it is so poorly written. The book wanders of in all directions seemingly at random, trying to be intelligent by connecting subjects that just do not connect, leaving you wondering what interlectual link you are missing.

If you thouroughly enjoyed the first offering and expect something similar here, you won't get what you want. Try something else instead (Insatiable, Valerie Tasso). If you want to see how Melissa P has matured as a writer then go ahead and read this, i just hope you will make more sense of it then i did.

Disappointing 22 Jun 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was very disappointed in this book. I ended up skimming through it, not even reading it properly. I couldn't see anything interesting in it.

Contrary... 24 Dec 2007
By Amykins
Format:Paperback
... to the other reviews on here, I actually really enjoyed the book. I loved that it went nowhere and just had a wonderfully verbose and reflective quality to it. I'm disappointed that the other reviewers don't seem to share my opinion, but each to their own I suppose! I actually haven't read 100 strokes.. so I suppose it must pale in comparison to that. Oh well, I liked it, if you like verbose rambling maybe you will too! xx
