OUT-OF-THE-NORM SEX
Book summary
An anthology that challenges the established canons of erotic literature. Selected from more than 300 entries for the Fora de norma Prize, these twelve stories offer a plural and feminist perspective on sexuality. Moving away from a monolithic, phallocentric discourse, the work explores pleasure through diversity, consent, and individual freedom. The reader will find stories that celebrate gender ambiguity, the rediscovery of partners, and personal exploration, presenting an eroticism that is more real, human, and closer to the contemporary experience.
