Det finns ju sedan tidigare Bad Sex in Fiction-listor. Här en lista på tvärtom 
det bästa sexet i skönlitteratur:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2010/dec/15/rowan-somerville-good-sex-fiction

Vi kan gå igenom topp 3:

3. The Story of the Eye by George Bataille (1928)
Unnerving, delicious, completely wrong, provocative, unbridled, surreal, 
graphically erotic, boundless and imaginative, indulgent and beautiful. What 
more can I say?

2. The Crimson Petal and the White by Michel Faber (2002)
A work of art by our greatest living writer. The 19th century seen through a 
fiercely modern cinematic lens. Faber tears the gauze and the drawers off 
Victorian England with his skilful prose and virtuoso structure. Behold the 
wonderful heroine Sugar ? complex, flaky of skin, keen of mind ? ready to do 
what no one else will. A big book in every sense. Essential.

1. Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov (1955) 
Although about a sociopath's utterly self-serving "love" for a minor this is 
also one of the greatest novels in the English language. The force of the 
writing is unparalleled. The balance of humour and horror, sex and satire, 
irony and delusion is extraordinary, and to me, without flaw. Just as the 
narrator and protagonist Humbert Humbert seduces Lolita through deceit and thus 
reveals himself, so we too are seduced, deceived and revealed to ourselves with 
an artistry and uncompromising cruelty that is an appropriate and profoundly 
moral commentary on society.
