On the Nature of Things Erotic
Language: English
Published by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1988

First Edition
hardcover. Condition: Very Good in Dustjacket. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. San Diego. 1988. Harcourt Brace Jovanovich. 1st Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0151699666. 197 pages. hardcover. Jacket photo courtesy THE IMAGE BANK West/David Hamilton. keywords: Sexuality Essays Mexico. DESCRIPTION - Speculation abounds on what lies at the heart of the sexual impulse. From Plato's Symposium to Kinsey's once-astonishing findings to Erica Jong's zipless ecstacy, poets, scholars, and ad-men have tried to define the nature of our irresistible attraction to one another. Whether we cleave together as separated halves of a formerly united whole or whether our agile couplings and fervid imaginings spring from a need to reproduce, the impulse is here to stay. For Gonzalez-Crussi, whose straitlaced Mexico City upbringing afforded little opportunity for high jinks, it was shopping that gave him a chance to look and to daily. His erotic awakening proceeded delectably to loss of virginity to a 'brune mestiza of pitch-black braids, and the entrancing, hieratic dance, the strutting of a swarthy maid who balanced pots of skimmed or two percent on rhythmically swaying, opulent hips.' Elsewhere Dr. Crussi ranges from Cervantes to 'Dear Abby' and from Sade to Hefner in his playful pondering on things erotic. The author's much-admired first collection of essays, NOTES OF AN ANATOMIST, was awarded the prize for nonfiction by the Society of Midland Authors in 1985. THREE FORMS OF SUDDEN DEATH followed. Reviewers likened Dr. Crussi to Montaigne and Lamb. For Oliver Sacks his writing 'reminds [one] of nothing so much as Sir Thomas Browne, oddly ad-mixed with a sort of medical Borges.' Stylish and sophisticated, ON THE NATURE OF THINGS EROTIC is a seductive addition to a growing body of original and wide-ranging essays on the human condition. inventory #12187.

"Speculation abounds on what lies at the heart of the sexual impulse. From Plato's Symposium to Kinsey's once-astonishing findings to Erica Jong's zipless ecstasy, poets, scholars and ad-men have tried to define the nature of our irresistible attraction to one another. Whether we cleave together as separated halves of a formerly united whole or whether our agile couplings and fervid imaginings spring from a need to reproduce, the impulse is here to stay." [jacket copy] "Gonzalez-Crussi writes elegant, ruminative essays grounded in both medicine and the humanities. Of the eight pieces in this collection, the best are 'The Divine Marquis,' a defense of Sade, and 'On Male Jealousy,' a fascinating study of the Spanish concept of honra. Gonzalez-Crussi writes most eloquently on subjects distant in time or space; when he treats the familiar, as in the latter section of 'Some Views on Women, Past and Present,' [Cervantes, Dear Abby, Hefner] he turns predictable."--Library Journal. Pristine NF hardcover.
