Backwoods

by Natty Soltesz, Michael Kirwan (Illustrator)

The married man. The wrestling coach. The high-school quarterback. You’d be surprised what they get up to when nobody’s looking.

Here are stories of the steamy underside of rural America; the back roads, back doors and back rooms of a town called Groom, Pennsylvania. Secrets are sacred in a place where one’s business is everyone’s business, and Backwoods bares them all.

Featuring nine beautiful black and white illustrations by master erotic illustrator Michael Kirwan, Backwoods is by turn poignant and pornographic, romantic and raunchy, tender and titillating.

[Alex Mar · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved the unapologetic, straightforwardness of this. I really enjoyed the short stories that all came around full circle to fill in the town we get to know, and the secrets, some happy and some sad. And the sex was good and hard-hitting, and just manly! Loved it.
