Dance of Desire
New York: Midwood Books, 1964.
First edition, First printing. 156 [2] pp. Light shelfwear; minimal rubbing to covers; shallow reading creases to spine, but binding firm; pages evenly toned, consistent with age; clean throughout.
Vintage erotic novel by Paul V. Russo. A classic example of the Midwood sleaze line at its peak, produced for the paperback-original market and increasingly difficult to find in presentable condition. Mid-century sleaze novels like this defined the genre in the 1950s–60s, pushing the boundaries of acceptable sexuality with suggestive, stylish storytelling rather than explicit content.
An attractive, solid copy and a strong addition to any collection of vintage pulp or erotic paperbacks. A desirable collectible example of a Midwood First edition paperback original, increasingly scarce in solid condition and sought after by collectors of vintage pulp, sleaze, and erotic fiction.
