School Life in Paris & Lovely Nights of Young Girls: Two Victorian Novels (The Victorian Imagination) (E-968)

286 pp. Two novels in one volume: School Life in Paris, and Lovely Nights of Young Girls. Erotic illustrations by Tomi Ungerer (who, perhaps somewhat oddly, is better known for his children's book illustrations). "School Life in Paris is devoted to the pleasures pursued by young ladies in an English boarding school, where the beautiful headmistress teaches the young girls how to 'attract men as honey draws flies.' In Lovely Nights of Young Girls, four friends amuse each other with erotic games. In the throes of passion, one of them relates a bizarre story of nuns and monks in a secluded convent - in itself a little classic of erotica."
