Description
Where else but Best Lesbian Erotica can you find a femme vigilante, a virgin baby butch, and a snake charmer jostling for your attention? The salacious stories of Best Lesbian Erotica 2006 will draw you in like honeyed voices from an upstairs room. In Peggy Munson’s “Into the Baptismal,” two farm girls decide to test their virginity pledges one rainy summer night. Renee Rivera’s “Jubilee” describes a classic American rite of passage — a trip to a trailer brothel in the Nevada desert — but with a truck full of butch dykes in place of the local boys. In Skian McGuire’s “Phoebe’s Undercover Bon Voyage,” a group of well-equipped tops indulge a friend’s cop fetish before she — a real cop — goes undercover. And S. Bear Bergman’s “Silver Dollar Afternoon” makes it clear that hot, boundary-breaking sex isn’t the exclusive province of new love.
Guest editor Eileen Myles adds her street smarts and lyrical dynamism to Tristan Taormino’s annual powerhouse of riveting girl-girl erotica.
