Weekly zine review #10 - How to write a Mills and Boon-esque Bodice Ripper Novel
When the library graduate diploma doesn't work out for you, there's always a future pumping out bodice-ripping novels. Leopoldina Van Wowser Ainswright (best selling author of A Quiet Sennight to Undulating Tranquility, Antipodean Odyssey and A Fistful of Phosphorescence) shares her professional advice for the first time, providing precious guidance and insight into the fine art of romance, lust, and sexual oppression.
Mu-Meson Film Screening - The Sexual Revolution
Sheesh it was struggle to get some in the fifties! No-one was having sex except married couples on their anniversary. This was the downer period before the sixties arrived on a tie-dye magic carpet with the pill and bushy pubic hair. Or so says Encyclopaedia Britannica. If you want the real story check out Obie Benz and Joshua Waletzky's classic documentary, The Sexual Revolution, also known as Heavy Petting.
Crayon Rings
So, I just tried to look up crayons on the internets. Are they really made of paraffin wax? (Yes) How many standard Crayola colours are there? (133) Why do they present such a choking hazard? (They don't, why are you asking?) Are they racist? (Not any more - Indian Red, Prussian Blue and Flesh have all been ‘retired') And you know what I found out? About this innocent little chunk of crafty cuteness? Google ‘crayon', and this is what comes up in the Wikipedia entry: "A crayon is something some people have sex with.
My Year Without Sex
My Year Without Sex begins as the kind of shaggy suburban comedy that Australian cinema does so well, but writer/director Sarah Watt has meshed a low-key love story with sly social commentary. Despite the title, sex is everywhere in this film, but as something troublesome, complicated and even absurd.
Animal Shelter, Art, Sex and Literature, Issue 01
It's fair to say that my mother has always had her doubts, and Animal Shelter is not the sort of magazine I want to leave lying around for her to find. Nor, I am somewhat ashamed to say, is it the kind of publication that makes me feel comfortable on the Bankstown line (or beyond any city circle station for that matter) as it has the uncanniest knack of opening to the ‘inappropriate' page.
The Favourite Game
Now, I won't profess to be a Leonard Cohen aficionado. But I do know that he is Montreal's premiere export, second only to William Shatner (who has a building named after him at McGill University).
So, anyway, in 1963, Cohen wrote a novel. THE FAVOURITE GAME reads like Salinger with more sex and follows the early life of Larry Breavman, a precocious upstart who publishes his first book while still in college.
Story of O, Anne Desclos
With Valentine's Day nearly upon us, the mind tends towards all things love-related: kisses, lingering glances, and that old romantic favourite, sadomasochistic pornography. So why not say "I love you" this year with the confronting erotic classic, STORY OF O? Originally written by the French literary critic Anne Desclos as a dare, a challenge and an enterprise de séduction for her lover, Jean Paulhan, it was later published under an alias.
