Growing out of Christine Stark's erotic dream,
"The Sensuality of Sushi" is a sexually charged and vivid account of
two women's struggle to escape disastrous marriages and abusive husbands. When
Christine meets Amadour, she and her best friend Lara find their lives changing
in ways they could never have imagined. Amadour is handsome and charismatic,
but more than that, there is something magical about him.
Led by the mysterious Amadour, the two women
embark on a journey of sexual and personal awakening. Completely beguiled by
his good looks, wisdom in the art of lovemaking, and his knowledge of their
inner most secrets, they surrender themselves to him, and subsequently to each
other.
Through a series of sexual encounters with
Amadour at his brownstone, the two women find the layers of who they have
become beginning to fall away. Christine comes to grips with her sexuality and
her whore of a husband at the same time she finds Michael Harris.
On one visit to the brownstone, Lara plays the
role of a prostitute. When it turns out to be borderline rape she realizes that
she has been the enabler for her husband all along, allowing him to abuse her
in is own perverse ways. After this she vows never to let another man abuse
her.
Christine has her own sexual experiences at the
brownstone, but unlike Lara, she embraces the feeling of anonymous men and the
sexuality of it all. When Christine meets Michael, she falls in love for the
first time in her life. However, her marriage and repressed sexuality causes
problems with a man still hurting from a past relationship.
Lara's love is Marc, a man who works closely
with her husband, a very dangerous man. When Lara goes to tell him she wants a
divorce, she is beaten and only saved at the last minute by Marc when he tricks
her husband into jumping off the balcony of their Manhattan high-rise.
In an intimate dining room at his favorite
Japanese restaurant, Michael and Christine consummate their love for one
another while feeding each other raw delicacies. Christine finally wins the
battle of the sexes with Michael when he realizes he can't live without her.
Their story almost turns out to be a dead heat
on a merry-go-round, but in the end, Christine and Lara find anything can be
overcome once they face their fears, and that love is more often than not a
walk on the edgy side.
Few love stories are as simple as boy meets
girl, boy kisses girl, happily ever afters to follow. "Sensuality" is
a narrative of what happens when two women grab hold of their second chance.
First 250:
"You may remove the blindfold now." A
soft voice whispered.
Christine blinked as her eyes adjusted to the
sudden glow of the fire. Shades of glowing red, bright oranges and yellows
shimmered before her in the fireplace. Its warmth engulfed her nakedness, and
as she rubbed her hand across her arm and along her thighs, she glanced around
the room. Grasping the back of the loveseat on which she sat, Christine turned
to scan the darkness of the room. Since the only light was that from the
fireplace, most of room was visible only in dancing shadows, but what little of
it she could make out was magnificent. Colors faded into shades of grays and
yellows, but her perception saw the deep reds and bright colors of gold and
white. Oriental carpets, thicker and richer than any she had ever seen spread like
patchwork across the floor. The bed was Victorian, and from her vantage point,
it looked as if one would need a step stool to reach it.
Somewhere behind her she heard the steady
ticking of a clock. Each tick seemed to match the pounding of her heart. Minutes
seemed like hours as she sat in front of the fire, naked and alone. Suddenly, a
sound from within the darkness on the far side of the room startled her and she
turned with a gasp. It was the soft creak of a door opening and she could make
out a dim yellow lamp glowing in a room just beyond.
