Book Reviews of I Am My Lover: Women Pleasure Themselves
Book Review: Not enough emotion in the Photography
Summary: 2 Stars
I am a photographer with some experience in nude photography. I ordered the book because I was hoping to find some inspiration for my own work, however most of the pictures are a mear documentation of the act and do not capture the emotion and the beauty of masturbation. I also did not like the fact that more than half the woman had tattoos or body piercing. As is often the case, the best photograph is on the cover of the book.Book Review: Erotic? Explicit? Beautiful? Joyous? Dreamy? Steamy? Yesss!
Summary: 5 Stars
Joani Blank is among the true mothers of the movement to establish a more open sexuality in America and in the this beautiful volume she carries the standard forward again. Six photographers present here their images of 12 women, each masturbating alone, sometimes using sex toys, sometimes outdoors. Short commentary from each woman is included: beautiful, blunt, poetic, always characterized by the ring of honesty. Honesty is a word that comes to mind again and again as this writer re-visits "I Am My Lover". Honesty and openness, warmth, symapathy, acceptance and appreciation, all wrapped in sexual passion, love, and respect for the variety in human sexuality are in these fine photographs.
This may be the sexiest, most erotic book in my library.
