(500 gram rate) tidy copy, printed on quality paper stock, 223pp, first American publication "Suppressed for 75 years, this erotic classic has nevertheless enjoyed a widespread underground reputation among connaisseurs of the Victorian era. From the original work - nearly as long as My Secret Life - only the first three books have been previously published in a modern edition. Most recently Book three continued the story of a Victorian gentleman named Jack, whose diary this is and the activities in his 'Snuggery.' Into this chamber, completely soundproof and equipped with a number of ingenious devices, Jack lures his fiancee's haughty sister, Marion. There she was amply repaid for her atrocious behavior toward Jack and, at the same time, comes to know the deepest meaning of carnal rapture. Subsequently, they took upon themselves the task of disciplining Marion's imperious maid, and the trio engaged in a lusty Bacchanal with stimulating results." Book Four continues the tale,.
