Summary

The New York Times bestselling author of Diary of an Oxygen Thief and Chameleon in a Candy Store is back with the spellbinding conclusion to the series。

You’ve never seen romance do this before。 So brutally honest and breathtakingly perverse you’ll want to throw this book at the wall, but you’ll also want to know if it can possibly get any more disturbing (it can and it does)。 And as you start to wonder whether men and women were ever even meant to be together, a surprise ending brings the trilogy full circle and provides unexpected closure to an issue raised by a certain photographer's assistant in the first book。 Eunuchs and Nymphomaniacs is about how we love today and how increasingly we try to avoid it altogether。

Here I am, once again caught doing the thing I said I'd never do: read a series。 However, I'll say that I was not quite as disappointed by this series as I was by Jeff VanderMeer's Annihilation series。 There's clear character development here and that's interesting。 I also think that Anonymous, who I still don't think is fictitious (it's less fun that way), uses his story to highlight the contradictions inherent in the way we think about sex, poverty, and addiction。 Honestly, I think this may ha Here I am, once again caught doing the thing I said I'd never do: read a series。 However, I'll say that I was not quite as disappointed by this series as I was by Jeff VanderMeer's Annihilation series。 There's clear character development here and that's interesting。 I also think that Anonymous, who I still don't think is fictitious (it's less fun that way), uses his story to highlight the contradictions inherent in the way we think about sex, poverty, and addiction。 Honestly, I think this may have been my favorite book out of the three, maybe just because I can articulate why I keep coming back to this story a bit better。 After the first installment, I felt like there was something that drew me to it more than the controversy, but I couldn't quite wrap my head around it。 In Eunuchs, the critical value is much more clear to me which makes it more fun to talk about。 First, we hear early on that the main demographic of his first book Diary of an Oxygen Thief is girls under 20, which is ostensibly meant to shock us。 However, when we read that Amazon lists his book under the category of 'romantic fiction', it all makes sense。 This made me think of the hype around Fifty Shades of Gray and in fact it made me think about the concept of BDSM in general。 The reason this tidbit was supposed to be shocking is because his first book is depraved。 He essentially enjoys psychologically and sexually manipulating women until he himself gets manipulated。 How could anyone classify this as romantic? I believe that this is the beginning of Anonymous' lament of how nihilist society is at present。 Using nihilist here to mean a rejection of the physical, we prioritize the ideological freedom granted by BDSM and sexual depravity over the physical degradation we experience as a result。 I can hear the Freudian whispers of reaction formation as I type this。 We resent the shackles we wear in society so much that we desire them in the bedroom。 This is why it's romantic: it's appealing to our ideology rather than reality。 This concept manifests again with one of the many girls that Anonymous sees in this final installment: Jameson。 She's a cam girl who takes her abusive boyfriend to court over custody of their child。 In court, the boyfriend uses her status as a cam girl to claim that she's an unfit mother。 In turn, Jameson accuses the boyfriend of punching her in the face; not so much an accusation because there is camera footage of him doing this during sex。 In response, the boyfriend hides behind the guise of BDSM, which Jameson and him regularly engaged。 Ultimately, the punching is not what won Jameson the case, but rather that the boyfriend came on her face without consent。 "A facial was no big deal as far as Jameson was concerned but the female judge seemed to think it was indicative of a wider lack of respect。 In the eyes of the law, coming on her face without consent was worse than punching her in the face with consent。 It was interesting that Jameson knew how to play this card。 She gambled that spurting sperm on a mother's face would be deemed more villainous than throwing punches at it。 Video footage of both types of assault were played for all to see。 It must have been an interesting day in court。" Clearly consent and autonomy are important, but here they are pedestaled above physical health。 It's fine that Jameson wants to have the shit beat out of her, but ejaculate on her face is where the line is crossed。 Both are problematic, but Anonymous seems to balk at how quickly we judge one more sinister than the other。 When I read this, it felt very twisted but at the same time very possible。 Again this is an example of a growing nihilism that places greater value on Platonic ideals of intangible concepts than it does on the nitty-gritty of life。 In a broader sense, this makes me think of university-level leftist rhetoric that takes post-modern deconstruction to a whole new extreme, using important theoretical frameworks such as White Supremacy and Patriarchy and Sexism to pat themselves on the back when they call them out。 In doing so, they believe their job is done and turn their back on the communities who are physically affected by these schema。 Are these concepts essential to promoting change? Certainly。 Do they need to be valued over life itself。 No。 A classic example is the idea that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism。 While this is certainly true from a theoretical perspective, the homeless man on the street corner could not give less of a shit。 To him, consumption is necessary for life, fuck an economic system。 I love theory, theory is great。 But when everyone is a critical theorist, we look at the real world through a lens of elitist garbage, the case of Jameson is but a small fragment of this phenomenon。 Is all this what Anonymous thinks? Probably not。 I certainly went a bit rogue in my analysis of this book。 But I thought it was great because it enabled me to articulate something that bothers me in general about society。 These book are attractive because of their depravity and sexual content, not in spite of it。 And that's because we value absolute sexual freedom as a response to years of sexual repression, consequences be damned。 We can't forsake life in the world for theoretical satisfaction。 We just can't。 。。。more

Really loved the first book, the second book was meh meh and the third just not good。 But felt I had to finish it to complete the journey I started。

Solid end to the series。 Anonymous at simultaneously his most emotional but also his horniest。 Parts of this are just smut to be honest, well written smut but it's still boring self congratulatory porn。 The best part of the narrative is both his trials and tribulations selling his book on the streets and his pursuit of his ex Marian。 There was a great passage about 52 pages in which sums up the entire trilogy:"But if love was an addictive substance then women were the dealers。 A bottle of booze Solid end to the series。 Anonymous at simultaneously his most emotional but also his horniest。 Parts of this are just smut to be honest, well written smut but it's still boring self congratulatory porn。 The best part of the narrative is both his trials and tribulations selling his book on the streets and his pursuit of his ex Marian。 There was a great passage about 52 pages in which sums up the entire trilogy:"But if love was an addictive substance then women were the dealers。 A bottle of booze or a drug had the decency to sit on a shelf and wait for you to use it。 Not so with a woman。 She got up and walked around, made decisions, went on a vacation, interacted with other potential suitors。 If a woman held the keys to your stash then you were in deep shit。 When your drug of choice can refuse to be imbibed that is a problem。 Women, it seemed, had what I sought。 They carried it around with them。 I had thought it was their pussies but now I could see it was much more serious than that。 It wasn't sex that I had been chasing all those years, it had been approval。"Read it for the humour and him finally being honest about the fact he's an emotional wreck。 You could skim the sex scenes and miss hardly anything。 Glad to finish it, a solid series over all about ones man's odd mental and sexual landscape。 。。。more

What a splendid climax (literally!) to this captivating trilogy! I am so surprised as to how many negative reviews this book has got。。。 A perfect combination of raw emotion and well。。。 sex!

It’s informal, it’s close to the bone, I couldn’t put any of the books down once I’d started。 It’s a real insight into the mind of a fucked up man。 And it’s always good to know what they’re thinking。 P 。。。more

I feel better knowing I hated this book despite still liking the first, and tolerating the second book, many years later。 This is just porn。 There is a brief three page bit of closure to the series, but it has 290 pages of unrelated content before it。

I loved this book, so much so, that it inspired an event of its own- 10/01/2021 01:34 AM。I was standing near a kiosk facing the railway station bathed in fog。 In my hand, I held on to the last cigarette I had brought from home, as though with it, I'd reduce the last feeble memory of home to ashes。 I preferred this certain brand of mint cigarettes which was hard if not impossible to find in that paper-faced town。 And so alternatives were offered by the half awake muffler, all being translated in I loved this book, so much so, that it inspired an event of its own- 10/01/2021 01:34 AM。I was standing near a kiosk facing the railway station bathed in fog。 In my hand, I held on to the last cigarette I had brought from home, as though with it, I'd reduce the last feeble memory of home to ashes。 I preferred this certain brand of mint cigarettes which was hard if not impossible to find in that paper-faced town。 And so alternatives were offered by the half awake muffler, all being translated in my mind to excuses。 Flaky reasons to not give me what I desired。 Akin to someone whose chat I had once pinned to my home screen, but who now only found place in the archives of memory, not yet forgotten, but in process。I was still deliberating when a voice sounded from the abyss a little right to where I stood "One Total, and make it quick for Christ's sake。" (Total being another brand of mint cigarettes)My decision was made。 I was sold even before I glanced towards the origin of the voice。 There she was, clad in a black crop top that tapered into a flimsy fishnet lace at the end at her stomach。 The swell of her bosom flirted with light and shadows, teasing one to enter and the other to leave。 Skin tight jeans clung to her skin like a rain drenched scene enacted from an old classic, where the rain conspires against the naivete of the girl, and exposes more than she ever would've wanted to, ending up in her discovering something new (read- coaxed into being an active participant in her own rape)。 She wore the shade of lipstick that contrasted beautifully with her thinly layered pale face。 Her dress might've been considered by some as lewd, yet the way she carried herself was nothing less than royal。 And it wasn't a ruse where imperfect shrouding of the facts was done just to make one delve even deeper。 It was purely because she felt comfortable in it, and that was evident from the way she carried herself as she kissed the cigarette between her lips and struck a match to engulf it in flames, like a phoenix being burnt at the stake, just for the sake of the amusement of the masses as it resuscitated。She took a puff and walked away, pocketing the solitude instilled by this repertoire of askance glances along with the lighter in her hand。It was only when the kiosk-owner spoke that the spell was broken。"Pardon?" A meek effaced memory of her lined my lips with a half-baked effort at a smile, as I thus spake。"He's a eunuch。 That lad。 Wonder what his mother thinks of him sauntering around thus。"It's been a day now and it will be an year when the clock's still hand next ticks, but like an enchanted hunter, I find these words being scribbled in a hazy stupor, with a pen I no longer recognise as my own。 。。。more

I started this book months ago, but could never get into it。 I’d read 25 pages here and there, but the story never picked up and caught my interest。 I expected more since the first two were so good, but this was difficult to get through。 It was just boring。

This book is just so extremely smart。 It shows the clever side of the author in the triology。 But it was kinda sad that it felt like it would be the last book in the series。 All of these boks have just left me speachless。 I don’t know if it’s just me, but it hurts in a really weird way hahah

Erotic and intelligent, like Bataille or de Sade。 Anonymous allows us to indulge in our perversions through his words。

If you’re wondering if you have any empathy, forget the personality test and buy this book。 Our favorite Anonymous author shows us how he scavenges for clarity through a heartbreak。 This may be the therapy I didn’t know I needed。

Nicolas

I found this the most relatable of all the books personally as Anonymous takes that turn into the deep dark recesses and beauty of the BDSM scene and the emotional dangers it can lead to。 Also, the street vending parts of the book are almost my favorite, as the pictures took of people holding the books can be viewed on his website which really connected this to reality firmly for me。 Good read, acquired taste。

I liked this book like I did the other two。 I don't know if it's just because I'm too young but I lost interest a little bit。 I can't relate to it but again I think it's because I'm only a teen and this book is most definitely for adults。 I enjoyed reading it though。 I like reading through the perspective of the male mind。 I liked this book like I did the other two。 I don't know if it's just because I'm too young but I lost interest a little bit。 I can't relate to it but again I think it's because I'm only a teen and this book is most definitely for adults。 I enjoyed reading it though。 I like reading through the perspective of the male mind。 。。。more

Eunuchs and Nymphomaniacs is definitely the third and last book in a series。 Generally I liked the story and Anonymous' writing style throughout the book, however, my biggest problem with the book as a whole is that 2/3 of it are about this guy winging over his ex。 This book is the longest in a series and I was only slightly annoyed over the fact that it felt like it had the least information in it。 But yknow, it was good。 3/5 Eunuchs and Nymphomaniacs is definitely the third and last book in a series。 Generally I liked the story and Anonymous' writing style throughout the book, however, my biggest problem with the book as a whole is that 2/3 of it are about this guy winging over his ex。 This book is the longest in a series and I was only slightly annoyed over the fact that it felt like it had the least information in it。 But yknow, it was good。 3/5 。。。more
