I enjoy Mr. Little's books. They were an introduction into erotica. I read his obituary and felt saddened. There is an implication he was a hack writer because he wrote romance and erotica, not "literature". I have to wonder, if he was alive and writing today, how it would have been different for him. I think he was a man, ahead of his times.
I enjoyed both these stories. His books are well written and constructed. There is a distinct difference in his writing style. It's apparent, he's classical trained.
