Becoming a Woman: The Secret Male Desire

by Ellis Colmar

Overview

“Become a Woman – The Secret Male Desire”
The advert suggested more than the usual transvestite experience, with a suggestion of something more complex and intriguing, …
And the promise of a long weekend where he would not only look like a woman, but would feel like one, and behave like one.
It’s a promise he can’t resist.
But does he really understand what he’s committing to?

About the Author

I'm fascinated by the relationships between men and women, where the women (as so often happens!) are in control, or take control. My latest two novellas are set in the future on Mars, where one city-state (Utopia) is under the absolute control of women.

Editorial Reviews

"Rapp's ambitious and exciting work plumbs the depths of Plato's text with verve and sings with a voice as poetic as Plato's own." --Highly Recommended

Choice Magazine

This is an extraordinarily creative, and lyrically written, meditation on the philosophical meaning and experiential richness of what is, by any measure, one of Plato’s most creative and lyrical dialogues. Countering the all too comon belief that Plato was strictly hostile to poetry and poets, an idea the *Phaedrus* belies, Rapp weaves contemporary poetic voices into her meditation on this preeminently Greek philosophical vision. The result is a tapesty of exceptional beauty and insight.
