The Adventures of Holly White and the Incredible Sex Machine

"Holly White should appeal to those awoken to the possibilities of sex literature by the popularity of books such as Fifty Shades of Grey, but looking for something more sophisticated. Fans of Nicholson Baker and Angela Carter will be in heaven! A riotous romp."—Books+Publishing

Holly White wears a ring that says True Love Waits and worries because her boyfriend isn't trying to persuade her otherwise. She lives with her parents and knows exactly how to make them proud. Her friends have agreed to remain chaste until marriage. Then Holly is invited to join a book club. Not just any book club. Plunged into in the classics of erotic literature, Holly is fascinated: by the strange new world of Eros, by the increasing power she senses in her own body—and by a weird blue glow emanating from the most private part of her self.

But Salter and Nabokov are one thing. When Holly encounters The Infernal Desire Machines of Dr Hoffman—quickly followed by the infamous orgone generator of Wilhelm Reich—things are set to explode. Her journey of sexual awakening will take her across the globe and into what might just be a secret conspiracy to prevent the world from learning the true power of sex. But perhaps the most surprising place she encounters is the one she returns to—her own home.

A romp through the canon of erotic literature, effortlessly combined with the laugh-out loud tale of Holly's sexual awakening.
