Lust for Life: Tales of Sex and Love

Smart, witty, and fascinating, this anthology celebrates the diversity of the human sexual experience, from timeless romance to one-night stand and everything in between. Contributors from a variety of backgrounds are featured, including Canadians Holly Phillips and Neil Smith, fantasy writer Nalo Hopkinson, and the internationally acclaimed Indian author Ashok Banker. Their stories are by turns sensual or subversive, mysterious or gregarious, playful or lyrical. Each breaks down sex, gender, or desire in its own way until only the uninhibited, vicarious celebration of love—that great humanizing emotion—remains.
