Parisian illustrator Simon Frankart began posting his playfully erotic black ink drawings on Petites Luxures, his Instagram account, in 2014. His minimalist, linear style and witty titles have drawn over 1.2 million followers worldwide. For this, his first book, he asked his followers to write in with their favourite amorous memories. From thousands of entries, he has selected the 50 most inspiring stories, and portrays these sensual, poetic, and often amusing anecdotes with illustrations in his refined signature style.

This classic book of erotica is, alongside "Story of O," the most famous French underground novel of the late twentieth century and a work of seductive literary merit.
It begins with nineteen-year-old Emmanuelle's flight from London to join her husband in Bangkok. On the airplane, she is seduced by the passenger seated next to her. By the time they land, she has indulged her irrepressible and insatiable sexual appetite, embarking on an odyssey of hedonistic sensual discovery that takes her from the arms of her husband to intimate encounters with the wives of his business associates, to further explorations wherein the philosophical and aesthetic facets of eroticism are expounded--and enacted--to the fullest degree.
Intoxicating and intelligent, "Emmanuelle," which has sold hundreds of thousands of copies since its initial clandestine publication in France, follows one woman's liberation from unconscious to intensely conscious sexuality. It is as pertinent today as it was four decades ago.

We usually think of women as the victims of pornography rather than its consumers. Whether appearing in films, peering provocatively from the pages of magazines, or posing on explicit Web-sites, women are considered the dehumanized objects of unseen lascivious male viewers. But in her controversial new book "One for the Girls ," Clarissa Smith debunks this myth and challenges women to read, watch, and enjoy pornography on their own terms. Focusing on the British magazine "For Women," Smith looks at its readers' responses to male pinups and erotica and explores the intricacies of women's unique reactions to pornography.

"Clarissa Smith has achieved something special with her new proffering from her masculinities repertoire. Smith's text is groundbreaking, multidisciplinary and--equally importantly--extremely readable. It is the last point perhaps that really sets this work apart, as One for the Girls has a great deal to offer both the specialist academic and the general reader. Clarissa Smith's accessible style allows readers with little prior knowledge of critical theory, cultural studies or the 1980s pornography debate, to not only understand these discourses, but to develop a strong grasp of their impact in this context."--Michelle Parsons, "Transition Tradition"""
