Book-Two in the "Dismantling Adam" collection contains another three works describing the misadventures of men in the world of the female-led. A likeness of a female-sadist leaps from a painting to take ownership of the man viewing it; an attempt to remedy evil through chemistry results in the creation of a dominant and irresistible woman; and the life of a man in a sleepy English village is transformed for the worse by the introduction of a wanton French siren who feeds from the obedience and humiliation of the men she ensnares. This volume contains: “The Mistress of His Soul” by Dominique Verlaine; “The Shaming of Purbeck” from Sandrine D’Honfleur; and “Madame Solange” by Rafe Linnell. Believable tales of classically inspired horror, possession, and human bondage for the lover of female-led fiction.
