by RobertOwenButler (Author)
Intercourse does with sex what Severance did with beheadings. Instead of the fall of the blade or the axe (or the closing of the elevator doors), in Intercourse the act of sexual intimacy provides the prompt for people's internal monologues. These 100 short stories comprise the inner streams of consciousness of 50 couples (most of them famous) while making love. Carefully researched and wildly entertaining, Butler gets into the minds of people across history, from King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, to Abe and Mary Todd Lincoln, to Richard and Pat Nixon.
