Synopsis

What happens when two people reject the sexual limitations of both society and their own “sensible” inner voices, and choose instead to exult in their shared sexual energy and go wherever that energy might take them? That’s what celebrated erotic writer and sexual explorer Marco Vassi and Eve Diana decided to find out when they embarked on their passionate, adventurous, yet conflicted seven-month relationship in 1986. The Shepherd and the Nymph is the powerful, intimate, delightfully literary chronicle of that relationship, as recorded in the private letters between these two writers, twenty years apart in age, different from each other in almost every way aside from their shared fascination with sex as a compelling, fundamental aspect of what it means to be fully and unapologetically alive. In addition to being an eloquent tale of personal and sexual exploration, The Shepherd and the Nymph is a vivid reminder of the social upheaval that came to be known as the sexual revolution, a time when all things sexual were seen as possible, intriguing, and magical – and an opportunity for Vassi aficionados to see and understand who Vassi was – his flaws as well as his genius – in ways that go beyond even his most self-revelatory other writings.
