Shocking, banned and the subject of obscenity trials, Henry Miller's first novel Tropic of Cancer is one of the most scandalous and influential books of the twentieth century -- new to Penguin Modern Classics with a cover by Tracey Emin Tropic of Cancer redefined the novel. Set in Paris in the 1930s, it features a starving American writer who lives a bohemian life among prostitutes, pimps, and artists. Banned in the US and the UK for more than thirty years because it was considered pornographic, Tropic of Cancer continued to be distributed in France and smuggled into other countries. When it was first published in the US in 1961, it led to more than 60 obscenity trials until a historic ruling by the Supreme Court defined it as a work of literature. Long hailed as a truly liberating book, daring and uncompromising, Tropic of Cancer is a cornerstone of modern literature that asks us to reconsider everything we know about art, freedom, and morality. 'At last an unprintable book that is fit to read' Ezra Pound 'A momentous event in the history of modern writing' Samuel Beckett 'The book that forever changed the way American literature would be written' Erica Jong

Surrey County in England, im Jahr 1975: An seinem 18. Geburtstag beobachtet Colin am Box Hill, einem Biker-Treffpunkt südlich von London, neugierig die starken Kerle im Motorrad-Outfit. Noch weiß er nicht, dass dieser Tag sein Leben für immer verändern wird. Bis er wortwörtlich über einen der starken Kerle stolpert: Ray. Die natürliche Autorität des deutlich älteren Mannes mit der Lederkluft übt vom ersten Moment an eine unbezwingbare Anziehungskraft auf Colin aus. Die Folgen sind seine erste sexuelle Erfahrung, seine erste Fahrt auf einer Norton Commando und seine erste Beziehung. Noch am selben Tag zieht er bei Ray ein – der Beginn einer sechs Jahre andauernden, streng reglementierten Zweisamkeit, in der sich die Grenzen zwischen Unterwerfung und Geborgenheit auflösen.

Adam Mars-Jones verbindet in "Box Hill" die Geschichte einer SM-Beziehung mit einem großen Panorama der Widersprüchlichkeiten menschlichen Verhaltens. Indem er den Ich-Erzähler Colin die Geschichte mit einem zeitlichen Abstand von knapp zwanzig Jahren erzählen lässt, schreibt er dem Text beiläufig eine Nostalgie ein, die auch den Abgründen des Geschehens eine gewisse Zärtlichkeit zubilligt. Und indem er Ray gleichermaßen als Unterdrücker und als Ikone zeichnet, macht er die Ambivalenz von Colins Gefühlen nachvollziehbar. Das ist sexy und anrührend, traurig und komisch, und entlarvt nicht zuletzt mit einer charmanten Portion britischen Humors das Männerwelt-Idyll der ungebremsten Motorrad-Rennfahrten, drakonischen Machtspielchen und versauten Poker-Runden als Mythos von gestern.

She is certain that a man who's had such a powerful impact on her and who could bend her to his will so easily, must be dangerous. But she's already in too deep. And Jack isn't only dangerous. He is forbidden. 'The latest queen of erotic literature' Sunday Times 'Every kiss, every sexy scene, every word between this pair owned a piece of my soul. I could read this book a hundred times and still react as if it was the first time. The Protector is a top 2016 fave for me.' Audrey Carlan, bestselling author of The Calendar Girl series

Three Women meets Crudo: a frank and fresh literary debut about the dawn of dating apps in Amsterdam.

‘Sexual infidelity is unavoidable, for whatever reasons, in long monogamous relationships, so why not give the other sexual freedom, as a gesture of love, of communication maybe?’

Amsterdam in 2014 is an historic city situated at the heart of the future. One of the biggest hubs for internet traffic in the world, it has become a favourite testing-ground for the new internet platforms that form the vanguard of what has been coined ‘the sharing economy’.

Gabrielle Bloom is a woman in her mid-40s, working as an exhibition curator. She is happily married to Anton and loves her son Victor. They have a circle of sophisticated friends and enjoy the life of two successful and respectable professionals living in one of the world’s most beautiful and culturally rich cities.

There is, though, one crucial difference between their relationship and those of their friends. Gabrielle and Anton enjoy an open marriage.

When Gabrielle is introduced, during a visit to a feminist art collective, to a new dating app that has recently launched in the city, fresh horizons open up. With an almost unlimited number of potential partners suddenly available to her, she quickly develops a taste for the thrill of a brief sexual encounter. Moving from one assignation to the next, things at first seem exhilarating and uncomplicated. But the human heart has not evolved at the same rate as the silicon chip and when attachments start to form things rapidly become less simple.

Set during one intense and transformative year, and suffused with art, sex and philosophy, The Sharing Economy is at once a uniquely radical reappraisal of the way we view relationships and a tender and moving depiction of the many ways in which the human heart is capable of love.
