US publisher Top Shelf has announces an event some thought would never come: the digital release of the groundbreaking, literary, and fearlessly erotic masterpiece by Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie‘s Lost Girls.
Available for adults only in multiple digital formats/vendors, the three volumes of the Lost Girls trilogy have been liberated from their bindings and are now available as three gorgeous and thought-provoking digital graphic novels.
For more than a century, Alice, Wendy and Dorothy have been our guides through the Wonderland, Neverland and Land of Oz of our childhoods. Now like us, these three lost girls have grown up and are ready to guide us again, this time through the realms of our sexual awakening and fulfillment. Through their familiar fairytales they share with us their most intimate revelations of desire in its many forms, revelations that shine out radiantly through the dark clouds of war gathering around a luxury Austrian hotel.
Drawing on the rich heritage of erotica, Lost Girls is the rediscovery of the power of ecstatic writing and art in a sublime union that only the medium of comics can achieve. Exquisite, thoughtful, and human, Lost Girls is a work of breathtaking scope that challenges the very notion of art fettered by convention. This is erotic fiction at its finest.
• If you’re curious (and over 18 years old), the first volume is temporarily discounted to $3.99 in the Top Shelf Cyber-Con Digital sale — check it out!
