Fresh Dew on Butterflies: The Best of 'The Center of the Universe'

Douglas Van Wyck, 2024

When Douglas begins an affair with his stunning yet prim colleague Nguyet, neither of them could anticipate what a wild ride it would become. Not only their intimacy grows, but also their susceptibility to temptation. On their journey of unbridled lust, they also meet others equally liable to sin, so that even an orgy circle forms in their small town in Central Vietnam. Initially, Nguyet had resisted Douglas' advances but then sensed that he offered what she simply couldn't gain just by herself: sexual gratification, yes, but also the liberation from stifling social norms. Tired of waiting for Mr. Right, Nguyet takes her destiny in her own hands after their first tryst. Which is also true for all the other young ladies in this volume, which has been compiled to allow inclined readers easy access to The Center of the Universe, an extensive 200-novella-series. This compilation should appeal to all readers who have felt frustrated that classy literature usually ends in front of closed bedroom doors, while porn begins without foreplay, denying the development of sizzling sensual tension. The Center of the Universe tries to bridge the gap between humans as cultural and natural beings, as sexuality is located exactly at that interface. All chapters are meant to entertain, amuse, and – in the best case – stimulate, without slipping into crudity. All light-hearted novellas are told in a very revealing, tongue-in-cheek manner and, in passing, also offer insights into Vietnamese culture. Without taboos, the episodes explore the sources and dynamic of erotic desire and lure the reader under the spell of an exotic world. The author of this series of ribald stories has been enjoying Southeast Asia for ten years now. After living in Germany and the U.S. for most of his life, Douglas ventured in the opposite direction in 2010: first, he taught at a community college in the South Seas for three years, before settling in Vietnam. Naturally, his writing reflects his undying love for Southeast Asian women.
