It was not only the faces which excited his longings. In spite of himself, the opulent breast of the fair player entered his imagination and his thoughts seemed to search each one's neckerchief, seeking this powerful nourishment for his appetite. He had tried to drive away these abominable desires, but it was in vain: the forbidden fruit was there and something seemed to tell him that he had only to stretch out his hand to seize it.
As he tried to escape from this diabolical hallucination, he remarked all at once in the gallery set apart for the wives of the principal inhabitants, a young girl, a stranger, whose beauty struck him.
She was pale and dark, and her full lips, of a brilliant red, were lightly pencilled with a black down.
Her deep, burning eyes darted flames, and were fixed on the priest with a persistency which made him blush.
The erotic fever which had possessed him disappeared at once. He was ashamed of himself and of his secret thoughts, for it seemed to him that this stranger read to the bottom of his soul.
When our young man of the cloth first catches the eye of the graceful and stunning beauty of one of his parishioners, his yearning to touch her lips, to caress her calves and to loose himself in the wildest of abandons, much against his teachings and preachings, is immediate and profound. And Suzanne too feels a pull towards the ever caring and steadfast priest as she comes to learn of his inner conflict and torn emotions. But how will they navigate these perilous waters, with those quick to judge and even quicker to admonish?
From the shelves of the infamous publisher Charles Carrington comes Hector France's erotic masterpiece of forbidden wants and repressed desires. Whereas France's novel The Chastisement of Mansour (also available from Locus Elm Press) sought to revel in man's decent into debauchery without a care for repercussions, this text celebrates the celibate and the immense task of remaining pure in the face of alluringly romantic and carnal prospects.
