Emily White: A Respectable Lady, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Within Emily White's manga-style illustrated erotic short stories, desire wears the mask of respectability and then, one afternoon, lets it slip. Polaroids, magazine advertisements, and a marriage built on unashamed hunger form the private architecture of a couple who have always treated passion as their first language. In A Respectable Lady, Franco has spent years photographing his wife Liliana and dreaming of a wider circle; she, raised to be a lady, has resisted.

Then she appears at his office with a small, devastating token and the quiet announcement that she has already begun. Later, in their bedroom, she recounts the elegant stranger, the nineteenth-century building, the bed with fine linens-and the words she whispered inward to the husband she still adores. These sensual erotic manga and steamy illustrated tales dwell on green eyes bright with tears, a skirt lifted at home, the strange mixture of remorse and triumph that follows a crossing no one can take back. The respectable lady has stepped outside the frame; the question is whether the frame will ever hold her the same way again.
