Darling
Darling | Iris Owens, Harriet Daimler
1 post
Considered the best work by author Harriet Daimler (Iris Owens), Darling is an oddly titled but very explicit rape fantasy. How explicit: after accepting Owens, and offering her the $2 a day he gave to all his writers, Girodias took the young woman aside, and asked her to, please, tone down the work a bit as it was not necessary for every page to be sexual. Fortunately, enough gets through... First published in 1956 as no. 19 of the Traveller's Companion Series.

See what I discovered on Wikipedia: Iris Owens earned her money writing erotic novels under the pseudonym Harriet Daimler. That‘s right: Harriet! Interesting, don‘t you think?

mklong It‘s interesting too considering how much Harriet in the book dislikes her name. 5y
