Moore basically spends the entire book complaining that no one takes porn seriously anymore, and while I neither doubt his sincerity, nor can argue that his point isn't somewhat valid (especially in what seems like a never-ending super-highway of porno misogyny), I can't help but think it's an 89-page argument trying to convince us that Moore's " Lost Girls" was actually a wonderful re-exploration of modern sexual literature, and not a book tried way too hard to be a homage to the Victorian era rather than actually getting people all hot and bothered in their bloomers.(NSFW: Do you find this sexy?)
But while the title suggests that the reader will be provided with a comprehensive overview of erotic art, save for the Katsushika Hokusai woodblock prints, the book is strictly an overview of Western pornography. "25,000 Years of Erotic Freedom" is a nice read, brimming with Moore's touch-in-cheek, anti-establishment humor.
It's an article about porn, so get used to it.
