About this title

From the Back Cover:

"The thing about sex-as this novel demonstrates in relentless (and riveting) detail-is that it's hardly ever just about sex. DeLynn has created a tough yet vulnerable antihero."-Village Voice

"If Woody Allen were a lesbian, he might have written something like Jane DeLynn's Don Juan in the Village."-The Observer (London)

"A fascinating, funny, and intense world tour of lesbian lust. . . . Bold, brash, frank, risqué, engaging, and at times borderline brilliant."-Lambda Book Report
