Had I known this book is more sexual body horror orgy tale and less sensual erotic relationship between women I would not have read it. It made me feel disgusted to be a wlw. If you read it as a horror story it's brilliant, also a unique display of the grossest perversions imaginable. Musset wrote it in 3 days as a bet, and it shows. The language isn't poetic but boring, repetitive and difficult to follow,  and the book relies solely on shock factor and cult following.
