"Absolutely wonderful !
Years ago I read Images of Lust and was delighted by this new
world, strangely absent from many histories of eroticism, art and
culture in general. This [website] is really illuminating and sets
high standards for websites."
- Antonio Dominguez Leiva, Reader in comparative literature at the University of Burgundy, Dijon.
