GRUPO PLANETA - LIGHT SABBATH LIBERTINAGE | POCKET EDITION

Ten clever stories full of imagination, desire and humor.

Synopsis of Light Sabbath Libertines:

Without a doubt, Light Sabbath Libertines meets all the requirements that can satisfy both the most refined erotomaniac and the reader just starting out in the field of erotic literature... Here is a series of stories brimming with imagination, full of more or less veiled suggestions and, above all, full of desire in the most carnal sense. Luis G. Berlanga has described them as erectile—or moistening, as the case may be—and the reader will be able to confirm this with stories as succulent as "Muslim Skewer" or "Pasqualino and the Balloons"; they will also be able to discover the infinite possibilities offered by gastronomy with "A Surprising Woman" or, finally, perhaps end up corroborating their lifelong suspicions about the relationship that united Dr. Watson and Sherlock Holmes in "Two Unforgettable Partners or the Eroticism of Logic."
