A beautiful, diverse collection loosely organized around a few broad themes with an informative introduction.  I thoroughly enjoyed Sovereign Erotics.  Much of the collection is poetry -- I don't know much about poetry and don't feel like I necessarily have the vocabulary to review poetry very well, but I appreciated these poems.  I've bookmarked several to revisit later.  I most enjoyed the short fiction -- short stories and a novel excerpt -- and now have several books on my 'to read' list by authors whose work I've first encountered in this collection.
