One day someone came back from half-term with Delta of Venus, by
Anais Nin . . . Well. Well. The book briskly did the rounds,
getting tattier and tattier with each reading. Mouths dropped open
in shock. Eyes popped with disbelief. Did people really. . . Did
men really want to . . . ?' Edited and introduced by India Knight,
THE DIRTY BITS - FOR GIRLS is an unmissable collection. From
zipless action in Fear of Flying to jolly romps with Jilly Cooper;
from transgressions with a priest in The Thorn Birds to mischief
with Mellors; from a gentle first encounter with 'Ralph' in Forever
to anything and everything but gentle in The Story of O. Even
Keats, Chaucer and Shakespeare are up for no good. These are the
stories that taught us about sex, volumes pilfered from our
parents' bookshelves, books passed girl to girl, hidden in desks,
whispered and wondered about.
