Review #1

Not so fantastic

I was very disappointed when i got this book(let).
The most detailed (and maybe the most erotic) art in this book is the one you see on the front cover.
Most drawings (of total 26) wouldnt be worth printing if they werent a part of the collection.
Nice book design but very poor content.





Review #2

Wonderfully wierd

This type of stuff is right up my alley, personally. And it is one of the rare art books in which the text is as fascinating as the artwork itself. What a wierd and original story . This creative team have invented their own type of erotic circus and its amazing underground exisitence that leads you into a haunting and intriguing world. It is fiction but it s not so far fetched that you don't have fun imagining, "What if?"
If you like circus life, the book Geek Love and the darker side of human behavior, you will find this book just astonishing.




Review #3

Erotic women & exotic animals

Wealthy eccentric Alphonse Zukor produced an illegal underground cabaret mixing erotic women with exotic animals in the late 1800s: David Delamare's Animerotics recreates the cabaret's alluring show cards, using sepia tone paintings to capture these erotic fantasy images. Delamare's art is deftly portrayed in these oversized, full-page photos.
