    Has any body heard of Anais Nin? She wrote erotca in the days when you didn't speak of it. The movie " Henry and June" is a true story of her.

    Back when I was young, I plowed through many of her novels and most of her diaries. I mainly read her because of her relationship with Henry Miller. Now, I wonder why I bothered--boring! Henry, though, I still enjoy now and again.

    Yeah. Little Birds and Delta of Venus. Also saw an off-broadway play based on her life one time when I was in NYC about 15 years ago.

    Never knew there was an Erotic Books forum. Guess I should get out more. Thanks, Ms Anti!

    I thaught Petronus or Appolinare's erotica of Ancient Rome or Greece would be considered to be old school erotica.
