Summary

Answering the hottest questions of the year and raising many more, this anthology probes the inner lives of those on the front lines of lust and sex. Last year's edition included articles on such diverse topics as dangerous dildos, professional submissives, twins, sex work and porn - and this year's edition is guaranteed to be just as interesting. Probing stereotypes, truths and the often uncomfortable spaces between, BEST SEX WRITING 2009 explores the complexity of modern sexuality.
