Ars Amandi : The Erotic of Extremes in Thomas Mann and Marguerite Duras (Studies in European Thought, Vol 6)
(The prominent and special role given to eroticism in Thom...)
The prominent and special role given to eroticism in Thomas Mann's fiction, especially the early stories, and in virtually all of Marguerite Duras's works is examined in the light of visual, tactile, and other stimuli. Sadomasochistic and narcissistic aspects are assessed, and the themes of homosexuality and lesbianism are placed in the wider context of these writers' oeuvres.

Vernal Amours
(Eleven short stories are united by the common theme of a ...)
Eleven short stories are united by the common theme of a woman's journey. Her voyage begins with a repressive childhood in an authoritarian, war-torn society and continues through periods of awakening and self-discovery in which she finds the hidden strength to support herself in new worlds and raise a family. Although the stories are quite different in time and place, in mood and color, there is a thread that connects the main character with each happening, each new encounter, each mishap and each joy. The tales show a woman enamored with the ideal of love yet unable to understand and enjoy sex. It is a woman who adores men but is afraid of their physical power, their superior muscular strength, a woman who had many lovers, not to mention two husbands, but was unable or unwilling to hold on to them.

Velvet Cages: Three erotic stories
(Heat Stroke, the first and shortest of three tales, cross...)
Heat Stroke, the first and shortest of three tales, crosses with tongue-in-cheek the sexual barriers of race, age, and culture in a brief and sensual encounter between a young black American and a white European woman. In A Green Beret, the spectacular often-inaccessible landscape of Ethiopia is the unalloyed backdrop for an erotic story filled with fear and tenderness, ending in death for male lover. Two young and beautiful sisters compete for a war hero whose model could have been Agamemnon or Achilles - not in their evanescent shapes as they lived and fought, but as they were caught in white marble by Praxiteles. The magnificent mountain world at the Horn of Africa is the sole empyrean in The Sadist ironically framing an abusive marriage among the upper European classes exiled in Ethiopia. A mansion in Addis Ababa becomes the velvet cage for a young German wife. Surrounded by watchful servants, the attractive, long-limbed woman is kept a prisoner in her luxurious home. There she is ritually caned, raped and psychologically abused by her Armenian husband who was raised to believe that women exist only for the pleasure of men.
