From the Introduction
"...the gratification offered by the form of erotic poetry mirrors the gratification we may gain from its content. And so, we may admire the craft that went into the making of the poem, perhaps even dissect the technique, or we may, at the other extreme, find ourselves in a Pygmalion-like state of arousal, or a Narcissus-like state of narcosis. But above all, the erotic mirror that these poets have fashioned allows us to examine ourselves, our needs and our wants, our experiences and intentions, our minds and our bodies, in all their beauty, and in their unattractive aspects as well. In short, the mirror of Eros allows us to know ourselves, in all of our humanity."
-Lance Strate, author of Echoes and Reflections
Reviews
"A wonderful celebration of sexual textasy."
-Robert Priest, author of Reading the Bible Backwards
"Candy is better than sweet - it's a sensuous collection of metaphoric, metaphysical, pulsing, pounding, gentle, gossamer erotic poetry."
-Paul Levinson, author of 5 novels including The Plot to Save Socrates, and The Pixel Eye
"Candy is heated and hardened, sugary foreplay for anybody in need of some sweetness."
-Jeanette Kantzalis, novelist and musician-songwriter for A Brokeheart Pro
"In an age that hypes the erotic potential of new media, Candy is a reminder that language itself remains our principal instrument of desire."
-Joseph W. Slade, author of Pornography in America, the three volume reference work Pornography and Sexual Representation, and Thomas Pynchon (Writers for the 70's series)

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
