Sex. It’s a difficult subject. Full of taboos and embarrassment, subject to boundaries and yet hidden from view in our homes. Well, mostly.

This very intimate act in modern times has taken on a transparency as it is widely discussed at dinner tables and public forums, and information on every kink and foible is easily obtainable and exchangeable in the 24/7 online universe.

But in more classic times writing verse on Sex was both easier and yet more difficult. Easier as the literary world was often thought of as debauched and amoral with scandalous verses passed in manuscript form from person to person, group to group.

An example of this would be the profanity of John Wilmot but most others had more delicious ways of expressing the same. Further back and the Greeks, Romans and other empires spoke with desire, frankness and often boastfulness on carnal desires.

And yet it was also more difficult as outside of a small circle of those in the know how could you possibly avail yourself of these poems, from tender to salacious, to ribald and loving and all manner of others.

We can’t answer for them but, within this volume, this compendium will speak for itself in many ways from the tender to the earthy and profane.
