Not since Stendhal's On Love has a book celebrated the love of women with the unfettered honesty of Alberto Bevilacqua's Eros. Half Memoir and half novel, without apology or embarrassment, Eros explores the forms and meaning of physical passion in a man's life.

"...['Eros'] is often disarmingly frank and does offer some surprisingly sensitive psychological insight."

Kirkus, 10/01/1996

"...Bevilacqua's deliberate lack of artifice, his candor and his stubborn refusal to censor himself do generate some gems....What he repeatedly strains to show in provocative ways is that true Eros has more to do with spirituality than carnality....He even ventures to suggest that talk--words--can be a substitute for sex....His aim, after all, is not to arouse readers' bodies; he wants to excite their minds."

Jeanne Schinto, Nation, 12/02/1996
