Blog Tour: Genesis Deflowered by Matthew Stillman



Biblical Erotica
Date Published: 8/1/2013

Where many see the Bible as the pathway to Heaven, others say it should be covered in a brown paper bag because it is so, so filthy.
There are hundreds of sex acts implied in the first book of the bible and none initiated by a woman. How can that be? How has nobody ever described how each of them would have played out in biblical language? If the writers and translators of the Bible had been a little less prudish we might have an entirely different relationship between sex and religion than we have now. In Genesis there is sex before marriage, threesomes, incest, group sex, kinky fetish cuckolding, gay sex and more.
Isn't it time that you read the Bible for the dirty parts? Using the seminal King James Bible in its Elizabethan English as spring board,"Genesis Deflowered" makes the beginning of the Bible come out as a sexy, readable and fun erotic novel.
"Genesis Deflowered ": equal parts holy scripture and blaspheming scandal



My Review:

I was skeptical about what in the world I would be reading with this book. Its tricky to combine Erotica with Biblical themes. 

As far as the plot itself, the writing style, and characters, they were all well done. 

I'm not sure how many readers will be turned off by the fact that it is taking a biblical writing and turning it Erotic, but it was interesting none the less. 

Matthew Stillman, born & bred New Yorker, ran program development at Food Network for many years. 

He conceived of & produced the film "The End of Poverty?" that premiered at the Cannes Film Festival & went to 40 film festivals. He spoke at the UN four times about the film. 

A lifetime with literature, inner spiritual work from different traditions, creativity & play, he has written "Genesis Deflowered" in a genre that he may have just made up - Biblical Erotica written in Elizabethan English
