The fourth volume in the exotic and erotic collected fictions of Kurt Steiner, contains another two misadventures featuring the assertive women of the Indian Subcontinent and the Europeans males who – regardless of their own feelings on the subject – find themselves taking up positions in their service. Our first tale is “Vincennes”, and the story of successful businessman, on a trip to Kolkata, who comes face to face with obsession and infatuation in the person of a plain young Indian waitress and finds that not only will he NOT be returning to England, but his life will NEVER be the same again. Mr Steiner follows this with “Obsessed and Subjugated”, the tale of an English writer, married to a beautiful woman from Rawalpindi, whose debilitating illness changes everything… Especially when the beautiful but venal wife employs a young woman from her own land to nurse and take care of their home… An opportunity - with the blessing of the wife - the woman uses to make the most of her employer’s illness and, more crucially, the latent masochism of which he is in denial. Kurt Steiner is a writer who spent his formative years in India but is now based in Falmouth on Cornwall’s south-coast. He is also the author of the female-led classic, “The Inferior”.
