EPUB edition – compatible with all e-readers, including Kindle, Nook, Kobo, and more.



"Three Daughters of their Mother" is described by Susan Sontag, in her essay The Pornographic Imagination, as being one of the very few works of erotica to deserve true literary status; and indeed this remarkable book was once cited by William Burroughs, in a letter to Jack Kerouac, as being amongst his ten all-time favourite novels.

Three Daughters of their Mother is, surely, the apotheosis of the erotic novel, an archangelic hymn to sodomy and polymorphic excess which absolutely refuses to baulk at any perversion imaginable, and tries to imagine them all. It remains Pierre Louys most intense, claustrophobic work; a study of sexual obsession and monomania unsurpassed in its depictions of carnal excess, unbridled lust and limitless perversity.
