This is a book of stories by Doris Vallejo, illustrated by Boris Vallejo. Like Mirage this is intended as an erotic book but this time the eroticism appears in the stories rather than the artwork. Nevertheless, whilst it is true that all the paintings do include nudity, in nearly all cases it is not of a sexual nature. The book itself comprises 15 stories each accompanied by a single, full page, painting. In addition, each story includes two pen and ink drawings which vary in size throughout the book ranging from full page to small vignettes included within the text. The titles of the paintings are derived from the particular stories whilst those for the drawings (in paretheses) are purely for identification purposes and mostly made up by me.
