If I may share a review addressing that very concern: <br /><br />"If there is something in which James exceled, it has to be the way she treated her subject matter. Scenes of attempted rape and physical violence abound, but they're always carefully and tactfully done. Instead of going for the cheap thrills and shock value, the author gently deconstructs a sad reality and unflinchingly exposes the psychological devastation that such an experience can bring. Likewise, James managed to write a very sexy novel without having to rely on the pornographic writing or the "ardor in her loins" writing that some romance novels seem to be so fond of."<br /><br />Hope that helps!Brooklyn Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809027629412743841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521103169839935027.post-21200086860620458462012-06-05T08:56:06.533+02:002012-06-05T08:56:06.533+02:00Nice review Sullivan!
