Summary: On the verge of boring
Comment: Don't let the synopsis fool you, Parva isn't really the main character. She seems like it, but her friend (who wears a stupid hat through-out the book) who is featured in the 'climatic' scene.

And 'climatic' is in quotes because the tension of this story never really changes all that much. One could read this entire book and feel no real change in emotion.

And calling it the 'most hardcore' seems silly, too. Despite some hardcore situations, they are delivered in such a way as to diffuse any emotions they might arouse.

As said before, go right by this. Trust me.

Sure, Manara's art is great, but everything else is just too bland.

Summary: Manara on Autopilot
Comment: Following Milo Manara's usual style, this book is simply a series of sexual vignettes loosely tied together by a fantastical/supernatural plot.

Like a lot of Manara's books, the continuity of the story is purely structured by the author's whim. For example, a sensual "kissing cousins" scenario is broken up by a blustering landlord which then segues into a near rape of the main character. Such scenes also highlight another penchant of the artist--linking slapstick to tone down darker scenes--which may put some readers off. However, those used to his other books like Butterscotch and Click will find this to be par for the course.

Overall, this is standard Manara fare and probably best appreciated by fans of his artwork.

Summary: Manara's poorest accomplishment
Comment: Milo Manara is a gifted artist with an occasional sense of wit and situational humor in several of his works. This however, is not the case with Manara's Kama Sutra. The book is a series of silly excuses for amorous encounters (very)loosely based on the Kama Sutra. Humor content varies from poor to nonexistent. Finally, the ludicrous encounters are un-erotic in their execution and seem like independent scenes that are poorly organized into a loosely coherent work.

Manara's Click (series) and WWW are much better works.
