Long description

The New York Times and national best-seller hailed as brilliantly literate, utterly unabashed ... consistently provocative (The Philadelphia Inquirer) and shamelessly trashy ... excellent (Jane). The Sexual Life of Catherine M. was the controversial sleeper hit of 2002--a candid, powerful, and deeply intelligent depiction of unfettered sexuality. Since her youth, Catherine Millet, the eminent editor of Art Press, has led an extraordinarily active and free sexual life--from al fresco encounters in Italy to a gang bang on the edge of the Bois du Boulogne to a high-class orgy at a chichi Parisian restaurant. A graphic account of a life of physical gratification and a relentlessly honest look at the consequences, both liberating and otherwise, of sex stripped of sentiment.
