      In our own world, loss of sharp eyesight serves as a great aphrodisiac for ageing humans, who can’t see anymore the blemishes on their lovers’ bodies.

What readers say?

("The Happy Hooker" and dozen more books):

We've been friends  for almost half a century and enjoyed several of each others' theatrical productions, so reading your memoir of Mrs. Gulliver is a wonderful surprise: so witty, subversive, and yet, arousing... it tickled my mind as well as inspired my G-spot. Highly recommended!
