The Illustrated Book of Phalluses

These phalluses are fortunate in receiving the attention of a real connoisseur - Charlotte Ward - whose scholarly insights never detract from an all-encompassing enthusiasm for her subject. Erotic Review Books has allowed Ms. Ward full access to its pictorial archive and the result is an awesome selection of membri virilium that are equal to virtually any occasion - though most, it must be admitted, do involve some variant on coition. Indeed, the male copulatory organ is rarely seen at repose in this little book, and is rarely parted from his female counterpart.

"Man has been fascinated with his penis since he first realised he had one, which was about one second after the dawn of modern consciousness. It is, however, impossible to say when woman first fell on her knees before it in praise and awe..."

And so begins Ms. Ward's odyssey in search of deeper penile truths. She continues in a vein that is as beguiling as it is gently enticing: a discreet personal reminiscence here ('We both noticed that, over the time of this amour fou, my lucky friend's todger became firmer and wider.'), a penetrative aperçu there ('What possible harm is there in showing an erect penis? Half the population has their own, to peruse at their leisure, and the other half can safely expect to encounter one at some stage.').
     Overall, an earthy, sensible approach to the subject that will delight as well as reassure both sexes. Indispensable!
