It happens, sometimes, that even the most voracious reader (and I know there are several out there who read more than I do) comes across a book that they just cannot read.
I found this title at a local thrift shop and, remembering the author from one of my assorted anthologies, decided to give it a try. It turns out, however, that what works in shorter stories does not work so well in novels (and vice versa), particularly when it comes to matters of personal... hmm, shall we say, prudishness? Suffice to say that I didn't get very far into this one before deciding I just didn't like the sexual elements.
