Publisher's Synopsis
The Oyster was a journal published in Victorian England that celebrated, rather than vilified, the pleasures of the flesh. Displaying a totally uninhibited and delightfully erotic style, it was written anonymously and privately distributed. The journal was largely forgotten until an obscure edition was rediscovered in the 1980s — the result was a literary sensation. Blue Moon relaunches the series with the first two volumes, which feature a fun and funny style and descriptions so frank they still have the power to shock.
