Gradual Gathering of Lust

From the confessions of an ex-Miss World to the last stand of an elderly nymphomaniac, the power struggles of brother and sister castaways to the quandaries of a fly-on-the-wall documentary-maker on a tantric sex weekend, Davidson’s enigmatic narrators tell all. A fitting follow-up to his explosive first novel “Scar Culture”, Davidson brings his playful touch and extraordinary imagination to these glittering, fantastic stories.
