DESCRIPTION:
In going through Talbot's papers there, Priscilla discovers letters from a woman calling herself Queen Bee that describe a physical passion utterly foreign to Pris. From Publishers Weekly Vanderbilt—socialite, artiste and pioneer of designer jeans—dips into the realm of spanking, thrusting, creaming and opening as a flower toward the sun with this dressed-up pulp erotica tale—Chip Kidd designed the striking cover, which features white-haired mannequins that (a certain type of person might be inclined to conclude) slightly resemble the host of CNN's AC360. Repulsed and fascinated by Bee's purple correspondence (Look Master, no doubt you didn't insist she wax her mons as you do mine), Priscilla falls into a labyrinth of pain and misery and becomes increasingly obsessed with Bee. Sadly, this is no Story of O: the prose is termin

Don't bother ana_texasgirl I'm by no means a prude- but even I was turned off by the weird kinky scenes- what could have been a good story about betrayal was some odd semi pornographic (but not in a sexy way) story - odd ending too. Wished I could get those hours back I wasted reading this-. "Awful. The worst book I've ever read. Forget about it!" according to Linda Linguvic. I only attempted this book because it was hyped in some very reliable sources as an erotic tale written by Gloria Vanderbilt. I was curious.Well, first of all, it is much too short to be called a book. It measures only 5 x 7, the type is humongous, there are wide margins and it is only 1Awful. The worst book I've ever read.

It's boring, it's silly and the parts that are supposed to be erotic seem actually comic.This book is awful. Don't bother with it.. Awful. The worst book I've ever read. Forget about it!

Ahmad This one was way out of my league, but worth reading. I read it as a book for understanding not as a book of exotica. I was happy with the way the book ended and felt good about the conclusion for both Bee and Priscilla. I have a better understanding of the book in my own way now. I could only recommend this book as a way to look in to obsessions of people and how far they will go for their obsession.My friend brought to light a very good view point on this story. She suggested that Priscilla and Bee are the same person. That Priscilla is so obsessed with her idea of the facade she has going with the picturesque life she and Talbot have.
