Two page vignettes of what famous couples in history might think during sex. Some are funny. Most are not thinking of their partners. I found this a different way to think about sex. I enjoyed the stories about the Clintons, Nixons, Bushes, Cleo & Antony, and Calamity Jane and Wild Bill Hickok. It's a fun read. ( )

not risque or erotic...goes through a series of couples, what they may have been thinking during the act at a particular time. a little difficult to read since written as stream-of-consciousness, because who thinks with perfect grammar and punctuation. i missed many of the sly winks since i'm not up to date with all writers, politicians, entertainers & their personal lives. goes from snort-worthy ridiculous to touchingly beautiful.

Short Stories. As much as I love short stories, this one was written in an annoying style. The stories were written as first person thoughts, clipped from a snapshot of supposed sexual encounters of historical people.The long, single sentence narrative of each person was difficult for me to read and I may have to re-read the book to understand it better.
