About this audiobook
The 15th-century Arabian text The Perfumed Garden stands with India's "The Karma Sutra" as one of the greatest erotic texts in classic literature.
It is primarily a manual for sexual activity of all kinds, dealing in some considerable detail with physical attributes, foreplay, coital positions and advice for how to achieve greater satisfaction for both partners, as well as sexual health.
In addition, it contains some enlivening stories of sexual encounters and sexual needs fulfilled.
Jonathan reads Richard Burton's famous 1886 translation with aplomb.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Repetitive, dull, and only exciting to those who do little and are shock by much. Islamic porn - "God be merciful to them as well as to all Mussulmans! Amen". Addressed only to men, about women and that curious entanglement they call "sex". It turns out it is actual "union". It is contract. You cannot disguise it with harems and multiple wives and servanthoods.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5If nothing else, this book of short stories that serve as examples of the best ways to treat love and the lovelorn are amusing. The appetites represented range form heterosexual to homosexual to beastial. Not nor all tastes and not completely to mine. But an interesting insight into adifferent culture.
