All Comments on 'Dark Tangiers'

Nothing Hesse about it!

A prose poem that enthralled and repulsed me in equal measure with the violence and raw sensuality of the scenes. Your language is nearly flawless, while the story is almost frightening.

The name attracted me to it but it seems less Hesse and more Paul Bowles? Maybe that's just the association with Tangiers.

I am sorry if my comment about Hesse led you to think it was in his style. It was just an acknowledgement of my using his "Mad Anarchist Theatre" idea ("All girls are yours") from Der Steppenwolf.

Deep and dark is where this tale takes a mind. What a wildly erotic ride.

It isn't at all Hesse; just a nod for my having made use of the Mad Anarchist Theatre idea.
