Reseña del libro "Mimi (en Inglés)"
Cynthia Jamison was one of the most beautiful and desirable women in America. She was a sweet, smart, friendly teenager from the suburbs of Chicago, where her friends called her "Mimi". Then she was seduced by the owner of a men's magazine empire and turned into the most popular nude model and expoitation actress of 1970's. She had a voracious appetite for high living and older, wealthy men. Yet, she had a dark and dangerous secret she kept from the world. Karl Cerelli was the perfect man, or so it seemed. A fast rising attorney, a gifted writer with a body and personality women could not resist. He was loved by all that knew him and seemed destined for greatness. Yet, Karl has his own tortured past even more dangerous than Mimi's. Then one night, purely by chance, Cynthia and Karl meet and their lives would be changed forever. From the moment their eyes meet, erotic sparks fly, sending them into a maelstrom of sex and drugs and down into the depths of the world's most famous men's magazine and Hollywood sleaze . "Mimi" will send the reader onto a wild roller coaster of intense human emotions, sex, humor, madness, unforgettable characters and shattering violence. Karl and Mimi's story will enthrall you and break your heart. Most of all it will haunt you. Forever. "Mimi" cannot be described or put into a single category It is an intense love story of a bond between two people that defies time and death. It is also remarkably humorous and introduces the reader to characters who are familiar but not stereotypes. "Mimi" is also painfully poignant at times reminding us that loss, grief and emotional cratering are part of the human experience. The love scenes and erotic encounters are written honestly and reflect the passion of the experience. The men and women who are making love do so not only with their bodies but their souls. "Mimi" also accurately depicts the era of the 1970's where drug use and sex were lifestyles of choice. The book also shows the hypocrisy of the adult entertainment world, Hollywood and the greater speciousness of high powered law firms. The book is flavored with an air of the surreal and the magical as well, commanding the reader to pay attention to the narrative. The book dares the the reader to disbelieve the believable and beckons all to follow it into darkness. The title character Mimi, is the deity the rest of the narrative revolves around. She deliciously evil, sweet, relentless, tender, vulnerable and brave simultaneously. Karl, her lover, just wants to be with her and will seemingly endure anything Mimi will torment him with. By the end of the story, they may have to make choices to salvage their love, that may lead them to doom. Riveting from the first page to the last, "Mimi" gives you characters to care about, erotica to thrill you, and a conclusion you will think about long after you have finished reading it.
