Review

Excellent story! For some reason I keep drawing parallels with Nin’s Woman on the Dunes which I just read before reading this. Probably because both are erotic and both have a dreamlike quality. While I enjoyed the Nin, this story was amazing. It is focused on a couple of sexual encounters, just like the Nin story is, but Files adds so much more to these encounters, plus a fantastic element, which I always prefer in any story. Content warnings, but definitely recommended if content doesn’t bother you!
