10022 Nights Exotica 2; Stories and Photographs by Cris Newport
Port Orchard, WA: Windstorm Creative, 2001. Hardcover. A fine, fresh copy in equally fine dust jacket. Presumed first printing, no statements, from a small, obscure regional publisher. 148 pp. Illustrated with photos by the author. A collection of short stories, poems, and evocative photographs that celebrate the eroticism and raw sexuality of women loving women. The reader experiences the haunting authenticity that blurs the boundary between fantasy and reality in such tales a "Adjustments" (in which a chiropractor finally sees why her husband can't satisfy her after meeting a woman who "straightens her out"; "Practical Math" in which a lesbian couple nine months into a relationship discovers that 2+1 equals trouble; and "House Rules" in which two coeds can't keep their "hands off' promise when they witness each other's most intimate moments.
