About this ebook

 Once upon a time, on the north coast of France, a callipygian chambermaid set her sights on a rich American with a fetish. It’s the spring of 1903, and the coy Nicole—intoxicated by a combination of youthful infatuation and ageless avarice—puts all her most promising parts to work. But it’s not by her comely tail she’ll win this learned lad’s heart, for his obsession runs deeper—or, at least, further down….

 Reminiscent of the tales comprising The Decameron, this singular story recounts yet another skirmish in the age-old battle of the sexes, and then betters Boccaccio by adding a pair of instructive morals, à la: If you lead him by the nose, be sure to check the porridge for parts.

About the author

Who is M.E. Meegs? An authoress, an editor—a wordsmith, if you will. Her work as journalist has graced newspapers as far away as Bacup and Cheadle. And as editor and publisher, she single-handedly resurrected the little magazine Psi, which rose, phoenix-like, from the literary ash pit, only to return there a short while later, having flown too close to the flame of immortality.

 But more important, to me, is how history will come to define M.E. Meegs. For it is on this great work, this great American novaplex, that I expect to be judged. Whether as author, editor, or orchestrator—the title matters little (though, to be fair, all three might apply). What does matter is that the project be brought to fruition. This will take time, of course, and immense effort—herculean effort. So please, dear reader, be patient.
