In The Romance of Lust, well-endowed narrator Charlie Roberts recounts the varied and prolific Victorian-era sexual experiences of his youth. Still considered scandalous by modern standards, the novel discusses subjects considered to be completely taboo at the time of its publication in the 1870s, including incest, masturbation, and homosexuality. Like many similar works of erotic fiction, The Romance of Lust was banned for a period of time.
