by Nin Andrews (Author)
The Last Orgasm continues the journey of Nin Andrew's first collection, The Book of Orgasms, which became a cult classic that has been translated into Turkish, performed in Prague and has readers around the globe. In both books the orgasm is an ethereal presence, puzzled by humanity in general and Nin in particular.
