This third sampler of recent fiction is organized around the theme of humor in erotic storytelling. Sometimes, that humor is fairly black, approaching the macabre with a good strong does of the 'meta' to go with the dark jollies. The seven stories and one narrative poem in this book offer sometimes mordant, open-eyed forays into the realm of the transgressive, with perverse twists and turns leading to bizarrely ironic denouements, worlds-removed from anything resembling the traditional Hollywood happy-ending.
Sexy, creepy, silly, fun, ‘Turn Me On—Tell Me a Story 3’ makes a perfect, easy introduction to the teeming world of erotic imagination that is the mind of Terrance Aldon Shaw.
