Typically, erotica is aligned with the spirit of romance novels-dramatic and emotional with watered-down descriptions of sex. However, in the tradition of erotica written by men, such as the Marquis de Sade, this book contains more mechanical, visual descriptions of sex with less melodrama.
Author Prendergast reveals erotic thoughts and dreams within the most random characters--a single mother, a priest, a French art historian, a goth teenager, an exotic voodoo-practicing duchess, an uptight English barrister, and a sassy black nurse. All of these combine to make for an enjoyable, genuine read with subtle humor and fun, sexy encounters.
In the opening story, "Birth of a Slut," Prendergast begins hard and bold with a group of basketball players pulling a double train on two hot, fit college girls. One is a sweet, loyal "good girl" whose man has recently cheated on her, while the other is an inimitable slut, the amazing, sexually-insatiable Katie who is both disarmingly charming and shamelessly promiscuous. Read only this first story, wanker, and you will be hooked.

Описание: What are counterfactuals and what is their point? In many cases, none at all. It may be true that if kangaroos didn’t have tails, they would fall over, but they do have tails and if they didn’t they wouldn’t be kangaroos (or would they?). This is the sort of thing that can give counterfactuals a bad name, as inhabitants of a La La Land of the mind. On the other hand, counterfactuals do useful service across a broad range of disciplines in both the sciences and the humanities, including philosophy, history, cosmology, biology, cognitive psychology, jurisprudence, economics, art history, literary theory. They are also richly, albeit sometimes treacherously, present in the everyday human realm of how our lives are both imagined and lived: in the ‘crossroads’ scenario of decision-making, the place of regret in retrospective assessments of paths taken and not taken, and, at the outer limit, as the wish not to have been born. Christopher Prendergast take us on a dizzying exploratory journey through some of these intellectual and human landscapes, mobilizing a wide range of reference from antiquity to the present, and sustained by the belief that, whether as help or hindrance, and with many variations across cultures, counterfactual thinking and imagining are fundamental to what it is to be human.

Fourteen-year-old Blue (a human) should be upset that his new friends Salix (a Nixie) and Finola (a Faerie) have tricked him into going on another adventure into the Faerieland.
But he's actually quite excited. Especially since their quest to find the way back to Salix's homeland takes them through the Wherewood, a magical region where lost things go. They encounter confused pets, misplaced homework assignments and mountains of odd socks. But when a misstep leads Blue into the forsaken Witherwood, he comes face to face with an old enemy. And Olea, the cursed former queen of Nearwood, will not let Blue go so easily this time.
This is the second book in the Faerie Woods series, following The Crosswood.

The Incompleteness Book is the result of a call for contributions to the theme: the incompleteness of human experience. The call was distributed in
April 2020, amidst the global pandemic of COVID-19. The collection takes an interest in the relationship between the haunting incompleteness of human experience and short form writing. This, together with the unforeseen challenges of COVID-19, as well as the lure of coming together as writers, is the impetus for the book. The submissions are aimed at capturing our individual and collective experience as a composite picture. The contributions were collected in just nine days. This project was generously supported by the Australasian Association of Writing Programs (AAWP), the peak academic
body representing the discipline of Creative Writing in Australasia.
