    "Is it all right if I reach out and touch you? she said. While you read?"
    —Peter Rock, "Blooms"

    Do Me gathers the smartest, sexiest fiction and essays from the award-winning journal Tin House. In this collection, the stories do more than just titillate. Tin House authors explore sex from all angles: first moves, breakups, sex on blind gay cruises and at "furrie" conventions, married sex, bad sex, phone sex, and sex in pools, fun houses, Vegas hotels, and public parks. Hilarious and irreverent, Do Me puts a new spin on bedtime reading and is essential fare for those who crave food for the brain as well as the libido.

    “She took the tag off the door and hung out the sign: PRIVACY PLEASE. The door shut behind them, and that was that. Here he was.”
    —Denis Johnson, “Xmas in Las Vegas”
