Three BDSM books I recommend
It was recently announced that the finalists for the NLA’s Geoff Mains Non-fiction Book Award for 2009 are:
- Lee Harrington, Sacred Kink: The Eightfold Paths of BDSM and Beyond (lulu.com)
- david stein with David Schacter, Ask the Man Who Owns Him: The Real Lives of Gay Masters and slaves (Perfectbound Press)
- Two Knotty Boys, Two Knotty Boys Back on the Ropes (Green Candy)
I am a judge in the NLA: International writing awards this year, judging the Geoff Mains Non-fiction Book Award. And with books this good, it’s a tough decision.
All three finalists are books that I would encourage any active BDSM practitioner (even if you are active only in your fantasies) to go out and buy. Picking a single winner is difficult when there are such high quality books of depth and importance. The three finalists each are quite distinct. One is largely a hands-on how-to, one presents an incredible look at others, and one demands that we look at ourselves.
