Best-selling erotica writer Nancy Friday's explicit and iconic erotic book on how real life has changed modern women's sexual fantasies. This classic erotica is a must-buy for fans of the record-breaking Fifty Shades of Grey.

Nancy Friday's sexually and socially empowering international bestsellers My Secret Garden and Forbidden Flowers revealed that women possess erotic imaginations at least as inventive and powerful as those of men. Women on Top looks at a new generation of women and asks: what are women's sexual fantasies today? How have they responded to the changes brought about by feminism, and the sexual freedom it provided?

In a world wallpapered with erotic images, but which still denies them full sexual freedom, women are more determined than ever that they'll be 'nice girls' no longer. Explicit, iconoclastic, often shocking, these erotic storiesβ€”angry, lustful, tender and darkβ€”blow apart the old social and sexual taboos. Nothing is forbidden.

Esquire: The fantasies are fascinating.

Newsweek: Another Friday blockbuster.

New Woman: A smorgasbord of sensual scenarios.
