EDITORIAL NOTE
November is the month for early nights in bed, preferably with pleasant company,
a good brandy and a copy of Club International. This month's issue should slot
nicely in to such an arrangement.
Apart from being the author of several notable poetry collections, Athens-born
Alexis LyKiard is the author of no less than eight novels, among them that bestselling
opus The Summer Ghosts and the more recent (and extraordinarily erotic) Instrument
of Pleasure. In this month's short story, Assignment, Mr LyKiard takes us back
to his native Greece for a sexy, supercharged tale of two girls and one randy
photographer. After reading this, you won't need the brandy to keep you warm.
An extremely lewd satire is presented by Enzo d'Amberni in the form of How Pokeface
Henry met Pussy Willow and achieved True Happiness. Based on the style of Damon
Runyon, this story is not only very sexy, but also side-splittingly funny.
If you want to write your own pornography, author Laurence Collinson tells you
how to do it. His own novel Cupid's Crescent was rejected as 'too pornographic'
by most of the publishers in Britain, so Laurence decided to print and publish
it himself. In Putting it Between Plain Covers he explains just how he did it
— and we've interspersed the piece with extracts from the controversial
book itself.
Take all this, and the girls, and more girls, and you have an exceptionally good
issue.
