The queen of reinvention once again takes us along into her new world of sex. Papa may preach, yet Madonna has led us to a place overt of amazing erotic, sensual, overtly sexual, passionate, painful, dirty, taboo, sinful, and funny. Yet, on its own, it is highly artistic in her mind. This cultural work defines late 20th-century social mores and how they played out in the publishing and entertainment industries. ( )

I randomly came by this one. Not too bad, yet not inspirational. ( )

As fotos são tão sensacionais, mas o conjunto peca pela vacuidade. ( )

Sure, there's a real audacity to it, but it definitely reads now as just doubling down to secure the brand.
I'll grant it was an interesting exercise at the time. ( )

ok i have mixed feelings about this. I was wondering what's the hype about this book, and now I've read it, I still don't quite understand why people are giving too much hype over a bindful of Madonna in erotica poses? It's not even porn. I guess Madonna's point when she thought about this book flew over most of people's head. From what I see, she's telling how women are mostly associated with sex. how they are subjected. There's a topic somewhere and I doubt she was piling this just for people to yell banned for.

Oh, I applaude Madonna for having the guts this book together cause I am sure she expected what came after, the mostly bad response of the public. I guess the title really covers what's the whole book is about. I must say it's a good art form.

Overall, if you're pretty much close-minded and not quite into graphical erotica, I say you should stay away from this book. ( )
