Delta of Venus by Anaïs Nin
"Delta of Venus" is a collection of fifteen short stories that explore the nature of human sexuality and eroticism. Set in various locations around the world, the book delves into a wide range of sexual experiences and desires, from the conventional to the taboo. The stories are as much about the psychology of desire and the power dynamics inherent in sexual relationships as they are about the act itself, and they are written in a lush, poetic style that is both explicit and deeply introspective.
