Summary: Intimate Kisses
Comment: Intimate Kisses: The Poetry of Sexual Pleasure is a lovely little book edited by Wendy Maltz, M.S.W. This is her fifth book on sexuality. She's a sex therapist and marriage counselor whose work has appeared in national magazines and on video.
Maltz says that "negative messages about sexual pleasure cause a lot of unnecessary personal suffering." She believes that understanding sexual pleasure will help people incorporate it into their own lives, while recognizing that "there are many different types and intensities of sexual pleasure." People's concept of pleasure also changes as they change.
She divided the book into five sections: anticipation and desire; self-awareness and discovery; admiration and appreciation; union and ecstasy; and afterglow and remembrance. Each section includes twenty or more poems. She includes the poetry of Marge Piercy, Anne Sexton, Sharon Olds, and Elizabeth Barrett-Browning, as well as dozens of lesser-known poets.
Maltz says that "my goal in creating Intimate Kisses is to provide an erotic, yet sensitive, collection of poems that describe sexual pleasure based on intimacy." Readers will enjoy discovering that she met her goal.

Summary: good reading
Comment: smooth poetry, like good brazilian jazz... not all the poems have the same flavor, deepness or power... reason for not giving this a better rating... good for reading after a stressful day at work

Summary: This is erotica at it's best
Comment: Oh my god........ Whoa..... yes. This is a keeper. This small seven by five just over 200 pages long gem of a book. Now I love erotica and sensuality and this book is a keeper. Makes me warm just typing the review. And the lovely thing is, it is a book that a woman or a man can read and enjoy and share together as part of foreplay or simply word play.
... there are no "blurbs" or information about the contributor except Elizabeth Barrett Browings piece on page 116.
To share two pieces so you can get a sense of the genre and style:
COME TO ME TO OUR SWEET BED page 19 By Penny Harter
Come to me to our sweet bed our sweet bed white bed yellow bed blue quilted bed oh the long warm limbs and the soft belly nuzzlings lips to shoulder .....I would be in you here are my breasts take them here is your entering me so deep so deeply come with me to our sweet bed
AT THE KITCHEN COUNTER page 120 by Jay Farbstein
"....After, back in the kitchen, you call me to you, unfold your robe and draw my hand into your wetness I fall onto my knees to worship and to taste of it
And in the night, weaving in and out of sleep, in and out of consciousness every time to find you folded in my arms wrapped up like a present we are giving to each other
Trust me it only gets better....
