Pink Kinky: Japan's Sex Underground Paperback – October 15, 2014

Fascinating, concise, and well-presented, this book explores the kaleidoscope of erotic culture in Japan. From standard porn and toy companies to extravagant show clubs and fetishes, I really don't think they left any stone unturned. Keeping a brisk pace, each topic is generally a short introduction and several page interview with either the celeb/performer, or an industry professional, which to me, is a great, enlightening glimpse behind the scenes. I am truly astonished by how much I didn't know, and delighted to read about the things I was familiar with. Furthermore, the photography is excellent and tasteful. Overall, I couldn't be more satisfied with the book, and could definitely see it becoming collectible.

“Pink Kinky” is a fun quick read that presents some interesting insights into the quirky erotic ‘underground’ in modern day Japan. The content of the book was gleaned from a series of personal interviews conducted by the author for (initially) a series of magazine articles. The scope of topics covered is broad - ranging from discussions with owners of adult content factories to individuals involved in a variety of esoteric fetishes as practised in Japan’s plethora of ‘sex clubs’. The book is illustrated with numerous glossy photos that relate to the kinks being written about. While definitely erotic, the photo images are relatively tame - no nudity! - and the content of the interviews is not particularly revealing of ‘new’ information for those who may have some previous awareness of the unique sexual mores of the Japanese people. Fans of the worlds of Shibari rope work, dominatrixes, and rubber costumes will find some fun reading & viewing - but don’t expect anything truly outrageous.

je possède quelques livre sur le thème de l'érotisme au Japon, celui ci n'est pas mon préféré. Il est cher, les interview datent un peu, et ne sont pas très interessantes.
