Do you enjoy reading a mainstream novel with graphic sexuality? Favorites? Least Favorites?

Some novels were fun with sex in them. I liked Henry Miller and Portnoy was fun. Norman Mailer just seemed forced.

If you want subtle, read this one:Warning: Jurgen isn't for everyone. Some will "get it" and some won't. Com/Jurgen-Comedy-Justice-Classic-Reprint/dp/1440055440/ref=sr_1_1?

Speaking of Roth , "Goodbye Columbus" was pretty funny with it's detail; Sophie's Choice had iome funny scenes with Stingo and his date; all in all, subtle is so much better .

Nope. I don't need to read about it. Having it is much more satisfying!

Ah, yes, but writing about it brings in the money. -layyla- 13 months ago .

Well, not all of us have to worry about money. And, to paraphrase - those who can't do, write! Sad to think some people have to resort to writing about graphic sexuality to make a few dollars in order to make ends meet.

This economy is so bad, isn't it! .

People who can't write don't understand. -layyla- 10 months ago .

People who can write don't need to add to the page count by adding graphic sex content. To do so shows they have no real talent for writing - and fall back on trashy verbage to fill the holes in their writing ability. Thats the difference between a writer and an author.

Anyone can write - but it takes a talented author to tell a story.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
