They imbued their art with the truth about love and sex and seduction. They pushed erotic writing to the center stage of serious American fiction. With delicacy and daring, lyricism and lucidity they explored their fantasies, took risks, and fed our imaginations. And what they wrote, we read reread. They're the writers who delivered.
Drawn from the works of fifty of the best contemporary American writers, The Good Parts comprises an erotic anthology that is both richly diverse and audaciously original, warmly sensual and playfully perverse: KATHY ACKER subverting traditional narrative with anarchic post-punk feminism; SAUL BELLOW reflecting the changing attitudes about love and sex in post-war America -- and radically changing the direction of the American novel; AMY BLOOM playing with gender and fantasy in a sensual exchange between two giving lovers; FREDERICK BUSCH exploring the erotic disquiet at the heart of a modern marriage; DON DELILLO capturing the manic end of a manic century within the stark and beautiful intensity of an unfettered act of sex.
These are the good parts. This is American writing at its most unabashedly erotic.
