This is a daring collection that will quicken the pulse of all who venture within its covers. With a Thousand Kisses scans the centuries for the creme de la creme of poetic and illustrated eroticism, and the result is a book that will bring many smiles and perhaps a few blushes to its readers. Among the poets in the collection we have included John Donne, Lord Rochester, Browning, Baudelaire, Yeats, Neruda, Ann Sexton and many more. There is even a new and unpublished poem from Louis de Bernieres, novelist and poet, and the author of Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Illustrations come from Boucher, Titian, Correggio, Fragonard, Courbet, Rodin, Toulouse Lautrec... to name but a few.
