Botero: Works 1994-2007
Rudy Chiappini, Erica Jong

Skira, 2008

Botero is one of the most popular artists alive today and is exhibited in countless institutions throughout the world. He gained international fame painting corpulent and comical figures who embody the sometimes whimsical tragedy of life. The dilation of his subjects gives them abstract, unreal, and grotesque dimensions that are studies in beauty ...

This book reminded me of when I took a mythology clas back in high school. but in this book, all the gods and goddesses really came alive! Erica Jong's sense of religion is astoudning. I found myself wanting to worship Aphrodite! Also the sexuality in his book is ...

Witches
Erica Jong, Joseph A. Smith

Harry N. Abrams, 2004

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
This is probably the coolest book on Witchcraft and Goddess religion I've ever come across. It's mostly a coffee-table art tome, peppered with accurate, nonjudgemental information. The construction of the book as a whole is really beautiful -- the paintings are ...
  
  











  



  
Crazy Cock
Henry Miller, Mary V. Dearborn

Grove Press, 1994

"The Master" at work...
Miller is undeniably one of the literary giants. This is a wonderful and enlightening insight into his sourjorn to that height. It's far from perfect, but to any hardcore Miller fan it will be a treat. They will get a real sense of "the master" chipping away at the ...

Parachutes & Kisses
Erica Jong

Tarcher, 2006

getting better with age
It is so rare to read follow-on novels that are in fact better than the original bestseller and continuing to improve. This one is perhaps even better - certainly more mature - than How to Save Your Life. I still think that for a hilarious and yet sad reflection of ...

Megan's Two Houses: A Story of Adjustment
Erica Jong

Dove Kids, 1996

negative, negative, negative
This is an extremely negative book. It is told from the eight-year-old girl's point of view, and is just very disturbing. Instead of pointing out any positive things about divorce at all until the last page (you can have hugs from four adults instead of just two and ...
  
  











  



  
Any Woman's Blues: A Novel of Obsession
Erica Jong

Tarcher, 2006

Jong Makes Me Smile Again
I've read this book several times over the last ten years. I adore her decriptions of her lust of men, sex, & love. Her prose is shockingly graphic, yet soft. After first reading this years back, I knew I'd never look at a man on a bike (motorcycle) the same way again. ...
  
  











  



  
Fear of Fifty: A Midlife Memoir
Erica Jong

Perennial (HarperCollins), 1997

Ah, to be a Jewish American Princess. . . .
Having been born and spent my entire life in the South and being a lower middle class WASP, I envy those brash, brave, bold yankees who have the "ovaries" to speak their mind and lay their souls bare for all the world to see! WHAT A BOOK! I already love Erica's ...
  
  











  



  
What Do Women Want?: Essays by Erica Jong
Erica Jong

Tarcher, 2007

Do not miss it
I am a great fan of Erica Jong so I couldn't miss this brilliant collection of essays. I adore her style, simple, smart, direct. Her way of depicting the female universe is sometimes incredibly moving, in other moments provocative but always shamelessly sincere. I love ...
  
  











  



  
Fanny: Being the True History of the Adventures of Fanny Hackabout-Jones
Erica Jong

W. W. Norton & Company, 2003

Read it for what it is-sheer entertainment
I read this book when it first came out a number of years ago and I never forgot it. It's not Sophocles or Gabriel Garcia Marquez--it's just a great picarasque novel. I looked high and low to buy it for years but it had gone out of print. Finally, I discovered it at ...
