In turns funny, insightful, and always erotic, this novel follows the sexual adventures of beautiful blonde Lydia through a modern Japanese male landscape. Donna Storey's eye and nose for the redolent detail is a treat for all the senses as she spins her tale into a savory concoction not unlike the cooked-to-your-liking pancake of cabbage, egg, and smoky fish sauce called okonomiyaki that serves as the heroine's comfort food. An Amorous Woman is literary erotica at its best. -- Liza Dalby Author of Geisha and The Tale of Murasaki AMOROUS WOMAN is definitely arousing but it is much more than a light-hearted bedroom romp through Japan. It is a believable and moving tale of one woman's journey of sexual self-discovery. I enjoyed Amorous Woman more than any erotic novel I've read in a long while. -- Lisabet Sarai The Erotica Readers and Writers Association Focusing on sex in Japan is a great departure from the more usual erotic scenes and I certainly enjoyed getting a peek into such a different culture. Storey clearly has a love for and an interest in this land, and that comes through with her writing. A piece of erotica that works equally well story-wise and for an insight into a whole other life makes this a great addition to your erotic bookshelf. I have no doubt I'll be rereading this in the future. -- Field Marshall MacBirdie LoveHoney Like her heroine, Donna George Storey has lived and worked in Japan andtheres a freshness to the descriptions and a coming to terms with her needs and desires which lifts her beyond the two-dimensional. A highly enjoyable read. -- Elizabeth Coldwell UK Forum Amorous Woman by Donna George Storey is a work of elegant eroticism with a very special perspective on elements of Japanese culture that is related with a blend of humor, social critique, and literary skill that is impressive from beginning to end. -- Margaret Lane MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW Written with sparse but passionate prose, Amorous Woman is the kind of book that demands you slow down and savor exactly how good erotica should be written.' -- Gwen Masters CLEAN SHEETS.COM
