Satisfaction: The Art of the Female Orgasm Book

With its cream and deep burgundy cover, Satisfaction comes in sophisticated packaging that is pretty enough for women, but not too frilly for their partners. Even the briefest glance through the 140 or so pages is enough to gauge that this is neither a clinical manual, nor an excuse for titillation. From Fritz Drury's pensive illustrations that evoke a strong sense of the deepest connection through sex, to the concise and readable text, this is a sensitive and inspiring approach. Kim Cattrall's TV persona Samantha Jones might be the super-confident man-eating sex-pot in Sex and the City, but anyone expecting a brassy, bold attitude will be disappointed. Cattrall reveals with touching honesty that her TV character is not only far removed from her real personality, but that until she met husband Levinson at 40, she was convinced she wasn't a sexual woman. The authors' aim is to encourage couples to communicate through trying out a variety of techniques, on the basis that communication is the key to sexual satisfaction for both man and woman. Illustrations of the techniques suggested are helpfully enhanced by some nifty symbols indicating crucial directions. And you might even have a few laughs over mastering the likes of clitoris twitching and turbo tongue. --Lorna VRead More
