About “The Demonstration”

When I wrote Dr. Christopher (as I call it and will probably continue to call it, so if you ever meet me, I might call it that; it’s okay, though, as Dr. Julius Christopher is a central character in the book), I wanted the opening scene to depict a demonstration of the electro-mechanical vibrating device. What better way to do this than to show it from the point of view of the subject being demonstrated upon and what she experiences—the frustration of being a study participant, the pleasure experienced from the device. So that’s how the novel originally opened.

Read more from my my blog post New Releases: Victorian Pleasures about how The Pleasure Device and “The Demonstration” are related.

Sexy fun includes: masturbation, voyeurism.
