Book desription: New York, NY: Plume, 1983 This is the trade paperback edition, fourth printing from Plume Fiction, of the erotic adventures of Sleeping Beauty. "In the traditional folk tale of 'Sleeping Beauty', the spell cast on the lovely young princess and everyone in her castle can only be broken by the kiss of a Prince. It is an ancient story, one that originally emerged from and still deeply disturbs the mind's unconscious. Now, Anne Rice's retelling of the Beauty story probes the unspoken implications of this lush, suggestive tale by exploring its undeniable connection to sexual desire. Here the Prince awakens Beauty, not with a kiss, but with sexual initiation. His reward for ending the hundred years of enchantment is Beauty's complete and total enslavement to him... as Anne Rice explores the world of erotic yearning and fantasy in a classic that becomes, with her skillful pen, a compelling experience." Erotic. Definitely an adult book. Condition: good/very good. Slight spinal creases; front cover is slightly bent at top and bottom corners (not creased), as are pages through p. 23. No store stamps, markings, or other scribbles found inside. Inventory #ROQ-045. First, fourth Printing. Trade Paperback. Good/No Jacket.
