Reviews"Eat Meis the sexiest thing to come out of Australia since Mel Gibson. And it's funnier, too." --Glamour "[Jaivin's] light touch prompts even the steamiest sex scenes to soar into satire. . . . Jaivin never loses sight of her self-declared goal, which is to wrench the writing of erotica from its male practitioners, dress it up with style and sly humor, and restore it to women." --Los Angeles Times "Something likeWaiting to Exhale(orWaiting to Swallow). . .You'll enjoy this tasty romp--you'd better, you slave--and you will thank Jaivin for the exquisite pleasure." --Paper magazine From the Trade Paperback edition., "Eat Meis the sexiest thing to come out of Australia since Mel Gibson.

SynopsisIn this eye-popping first novel--a runaway bestseller in Australia--Linda Jaivin invites readers to partake of a lusty banquet of conversations about that hottest topic of all--sex. With its layering of stories within stories, Eat Me is as provocative in structure as it is potent in detail. This outspoken, outrageous, utterly irresistible international debut is destined to be one of the most talked about books of the year., In this eye-popping first novel--a runaway best-seller in Australia--Linda Jaivin invites readers to partake of a lusty banquet of conversations about that hottest topic of all--sex. The talk is served up in various trendy cafés by a foursome of bright, successful women: Julia, a photographer with a penchant for Peking duck and acrobatic men; Chantal, a fashion magazine editor, whose sexual exploits give new meaning to "mixing and matching"; Helen, a feminist scholar, whose wholesome demeanor belies her exotic sexual fantasies; and Philippa, a writer who appears to be taking rather close notes on her friends' raunchy tales. With its layering of stories within stories, Eat Me is as provocative in structure as it is potent in detail. Is it a literary romp? A work of pornography? A devastating social satire? One thing is clear: This outspoken, outrageous, utterly irresistible debut is destined to be the most talked about book of the year.
