James Joyce's Dirty Little Secrets

James Joyce dirty letters

"1909. James Joyce lives in Trieste (Italy) with his family. End of October, he leaves alone for Dublin on a business trip, and stays there until the end of December. He makes a pact with his wife to write to each other erotic letters. The letters of his wife disappeared, but the ones he wrote were published in 1975, the "dirty" letters of Joyce to her wife."

Probably the most grammatically correct dirty letters you'll ever read. Infinitely more interesting than the much overrated "Ulysses". The most shocking thing in these letters? The fact that the word "frigging" even existed back in 1909 (Joyce refers to his wife at one point as, "my little frigging mistress!"). Who friggin' knew?
