| | | "Amazons is an erotic, frequently funny, and potentially disturbing anthology of stories. These tales are told by a wide variety of writers, reflecting a range of viewpoints and story styles.
In "Amazons, writers such as Maxim Jakubowski, Patrick Califia, Alison Tyler, Marcy Sheiner, and Mitzi Szereto "play" with the erotic theme of the Amazon, expounding upon and deconstructing the image of strong women in a variety of wide-ranging stories. These and many more acclaimed authors of erotica explore the clichi of the powerful woman -- using it, so to speak, till it breaks down. These are not simply stories of the classical myth (though some may play tribute to it). These stories dismantle the legend and break the myth apart, exploding it as it relates to gender, power, femininity vs. masculinity, and women's roles in history.
"Amazons includes worshipful tales of the legendary female warriors, fantasies about modern amazons cruising city streets, dyke gangs, dominatrixes plying their trade, drag queens, midgets (with attitude), cowgirls, giants, supermodels (with attitude), matriarchs, mothers (and grandmothers), body builders, cops, Mexican wrestlers, jocks, soldiers, bosses and many others. "Amazons' stories are funny and sarcastic, horrific, light and fantastic, scary -- but always incredibly erotic.
