"This book specifically looks at very diverse sex lives of the animal kingdom. The original French subtitle, "every taste can be found in nature," points to a theme that goes back to the French era of decadent literature: there is no sexual "perversion" among humans that doesn't have a "natural" correlate in the animal kingdom, from masturbation and oral sex to interspecies acts, sadomasochism, and necrophilia"-- Provided by publisher
