Title: An excellent introduction to Japanese erotism.
Review: The Japanese are well known for their martial arts, poetry and artistic skills. This 81/2 by 11 hardcover book is focused on Japanese erotic art. Many of these beautiful and detailed drawings came initially from the Japanese pillow books which showed various sexual positions. These books were often given to married couples as gifts. Japanese erotic art is intertwined with their culture and religious beliefs. These drawings represent how the Japanese viewed the nature of love and sexual desire. They did not view it as dirty or perverse but part of the total aspect of being human.In conclusion, these erotic drawings are classics and will be of interest to anyone who is into Japanese cultural arts as well as martial arts.Rating: 4 Stars.
