Publisher's Synopsis
As a foreigner to English shores, the Prince is confused by the complexities of sexual politics and sexual behaviour among the women and men of Britain, compared to the relatively simple sex encounters of his home in the islands of the Pacific. From the bewitching top-shelf adult magazines to adult erotica of an entirely different sort, the Prince discovers the formula by which pornography stimulates English men to action, and some of the more bizarre activities which a few crave to see. In letters home to his brother, he comments on gender differences as he understands them from his flatmate and friends. He describes in uninhibited detail the attractions and pleasures of sex encounters that seem so prevalent in English society, and the various forms of adult erotica that exist in the booming sexual service industry. The sexual behaviour of women and men and adult magazines has him curious, but his friend Monica, who says she is a feminist, tells him that the sexual politics of gender differences is far more complicated than it seems. Who should he believe? And what should he take back to the uncomplicated society of his homeland, where relationships between men and women are much more simple? The author, Trevor Harvey MA is a social scientist and art critic living in Sussex, England. His first book is social science fiction, anthropology in reverse, an alternative view on sexual politics which suggests some hope within the chaos of modern relations between men and women.
