Aphrodite's Island - Andrew John Gardia

In a compelling set of erotic stories which burn with passion and are also enormous fun, Andrew John Garcia has created a real world out of an imaginary Greek island. In a style which has a relentless eye for truth reminiscent of Anais Nin, we are confronted with the beauty and vulnerability of men and women. The stories are all set on one unnamed island where the locals claim Aphrodite, goddess of love, was born. During two weeks towards the end of one summer, in the heat, in the beautiful surroundings, in the sense of relaxation and time, and with the scent of the pines and mountain herbs all around, a specially erotic atmosphere is created.
