“Tout juste si - dans la ligne de mire -, baisers linguae of course, in puris naturalibus, illico presto, cela va de soi, décubitus dorsal, décubitus ventral, ipso facto, elle, lui et réciproquement un temps à géométrie variable, coïtus ininterrompus, un temps à géométrie variable, post coïtus, cigarette. Détente soporifique, sommeil enfin, sommeil. Un temps de porosité douce dans les parages d'Anastasie. Et réciproquement. L'indifférenciation, elle, lui. Ici, plus de mort. Ou la mort.

In an attempt to deflect criticism, he apologizes as he goes, pointing out that the minstrel show, strip club visit, or cheap, all-purpose servants in a Third World setting are terribly, terribly distasteful to him, and he disapproves as much as anyone—more! Meanwhile, he continues to wallow in these scenes, exposing what everyone instantly recognizes as the world of his fantasies. The result is often reminiscent of a sixties sexploitation movie on the dangers of promiscuity.”
