Just because it's in your library doesn't mean it doesn't contain adult
content.  <smile>  But of course, it's possible to cover those topics
without actually being graphic.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] just submitted, Snakes and Earrings

 

I just submitted Snakes and Earrings by "Hitomi Kanehara,David James
Karashima (translator)".

I didn't mark it adult, as it was available in my library.

Lui is a freeter, or independent young adult, living on part-time jobs and
affectlessly clubbing, drinking, drugging, and ssex.
She meets literally fork-tongued Ama. She decides to have her tongue done
likewise and becomes Ama's noncommittal lover, boffing tattooist Shiba on
the
side and never learning Ama's real name. Violence, heavy drinking, and death
eventually disrupt this drama of youthful degeneracy that steadfastly
rejects
romanticism.

Enjoy, it's a short book at about 125 pages or so.
