And no worries about this.
Looking forward to hearing more about what you're reading next!

BTW, quick tip if you're using a phone, switch your browser to desktop site mode. It gives you more options. You can edit your message then.

Hey Priyanka!
So glad to have you here
And गुनाहों का देवता is my TBR. Also love that you're exploring Hindi literature

Delta of Venus

This book written by Anaïs Nin. It is collection of 15 stories. The stories originally commissioned by a private collector who instructed her to focus on explicit scenarios, exclude poetic language. Despite this it is considered a great work of erotic literature.

Personally I found these stories interesting, some scenarios made me feel uncomfortable and sometimes I get bored because of over-description of some scenarios.

Here are few lines and passage which amazed me or gave me a shock.

You cannot see him as he really is, you cannot see anyone as he really is. He will always be disappointing because you are expecting someone.


No man could live completely for love as a woman could, could make this the purpose of his life and fill his days with it.

Elena represented to men a type of woman who was the opposite of the whore, a woman who poetized and dramatized love, mixed it with emotion, a woman who seemed made of another substance, a woman one imagined created by a legend.

I never knew in what disguise he was coming to see me. If he had an identity, it was the identity of changing, of being anything; it was the identity of the actor for whom there is a continual drama.

It was Michel who counseled Linda never to be jealous, that she must remember there were more women in the world than men, especially in France, and that a woman must be generous with her husband – think how many women would be left without a knowledge of love. He said this seriously. He thought of jealousy as a sort of miserliness. The only truly generous women were the prostitutes, actresses, who did not withhold their bodies. To his mind, the meanest type of woman was the American gold digger who knew how to extract money from men without giving herself, which Michel thought a sign of bad character.

Navodit wrote: "I am reading Homo Deus (well was, rn been a lot inconsistent). Its actually a sequel of book Sepians by the same author, Yuval Noah Harari, which is one of my favourites."
I watched a few interviews and podcasts of Yuval Noah Harari. I found his talks quite interesting and his views much insightful. I have been reading his book Sapiens, along with an erotica Delta of Venus. He is a good story teller.

Sometimes a single line makes the whole book worth it.
