Iniquity

by Desmond,Robert ...

One of at least three Olympia Press titles to chronicle the life in publishing, Iniquity presents Lydia Steele, a teenage girl with a well-developed chest and a passion for writing erotic tales. Of course, they didn't let her in for that second talent. Desmond, who worked with Maurice for years, may be drawing on his fellow Olympians here. As you'd expect, a Frog-Prince of sorts plays a key role. ... Read more

Professional Charmer

by Desmond,Robert ...

Robert Desmond was among the most prolific authors for Girodias' Travellers Companion series, writing eight books in all, the last in 1962. Little is known about him today, biographies we have about Girodias and others barely mention the man, only remarking how upset Mr. Donleavy was to be published alongside him. This title, Professional Charmer, about a gigolo of course, is one of Desmond's most ... Read more

Seeds Of The Rainbow

by Desmond,Robert ...

Rarest of the rare. This book, first published in '57 as no. 45 in the Traveller's Companion series, is among the toughest works to find. (No. 44 was a little something called The Story of O, a title that initiated yet another French government crackdown on Olympia, perhaps explaining Rainbow's scarcity.) Whatever, scored a copy. Seeds of the Rainbow is the tale of Sid, a man as gifted in the ... Read more
