I am reading again, this time Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, Death in Venice by Thomas Mann, and Lady Chatterly’s Lover by D. H. Lawrence. Coincidentally, I saw yesterday that Lady Chatterly’s Lover has been named 2nd Sexiest Novel of All Time on Playboy Magazine’s list of The 25 Sexiest Novels Ever Written. It just beat out another book that I recently read twice, Tropic of Cancer. Too bad the list only goes to 25…I was curious whether the editors of Playboy thought Beowulf or Canterbury Tales a more erotic novel.
