Commentary Conducive To Books Taming the Beast

At the tender age of fourteen, Sarah Clark is seduced by her thirty-eight-year-old English teacher, Daniel Carr, and becomes entangled in an illegal, erotic, passionate, and dangerous affair—a vicious meeting of minds and bodies that ends badly. Devastated by grief and longing, Sarah embarks upon a series of meaningless self-abasing sexual encounters, hoping to reclaim the intensity of that first relationship. Then, seven years later, Carr unexpectedly returns and Sarah is drawn again into a destructive coupling. Now that she is no longer an innocent young girl, is she strong enough to finally tame the beast within her?

A modern Lolita, Taming the Beast is an emotionally unflinching and alluring tale that introduces a powerful new writer.

Column Out Of Books Taming the Beast

A small autobiographical opening:Once upon a time, a very lovely and Dangerously Younger girl sat back on my couch and kissed me. "I'm a train wreck," she said, "and you're a predator. We're pretty much the perfect couple."Which is one way of saying that Emily Maguire's "Taming the Beast" is stunningly powerful. And of course a clear way of saying there was never a chance that I wouldn't fall in love with her heroine. But anyone who knows me knows that Maguire's Sarah Clark is probably the

Emily Maguire has a breathless talent and a fascination with the cloying nausea of intoxication. This is a book which forces you to throw back a full tequila shot then immediately demand another two.I had equal parts of fascination and revulsion for Sarah Clark. Maguire claims that Sarah is profoundly unsure of herself, yet I was profoundly unsure of Sarah as I was forced to witness her spiral into self-degradation. Maguires writing is so powerful, so disturbing that I found myself alternating

Before reading my passionate and lusty review of this book, I want to warn everyone that I'm not an erotic genre lover or sex addict or both. It was an accident that I liked this book because of its deeper meaning besides having sex with a teacher and with a restless book. I rated it higher than what I expected when I started reading it, every letters of every words of this book delivers a very strong emotion of a girl who needed someone to comfort her.Sometimes, I ask myself, why do prostitutes

This is a very well-written and intense book, that will disturb and likely disappoint readers looking for a happy romance. Those looking for a challenging and engrossing read, with interesting and complex characters, will find much to absorb them.Sarah is only 14 when she embarks on a sado-masochistic sexual relationship with her 38-year-old English teacher Daniel Carr. (Bear in mind that the book is set in Australia, where the age of consent is 16 and perspectives on underage sex are

3.5 star ratingWow. Honestly I don't even know what to say or what to feel. Right now I am odd and hurt because of the ending in this book-or this book period. Don't worry I will not spoil anything for you guys!This is a dark dark and very twisted story but what I like about this was that the author did not give a predictable ending/A predictable story either.For myself I think that the book is OK writing wise. It uses a lot of literature and that's what I like most about it is the literature

As disturbing as this book was and as dislikable every single character was, I still loved the story. It showed how easy love can turn into obsession, how easy is to cross that line. Jamie loved Sarah but his love bordered on obsession, in my opinion. As far as Sarah goes, I don't think she ever loved Daniel, I truly don't. She was infatuated as a young girl with her teacher, and later on, she was obsessed with him and everything he represented. Daniel, sick and perverted old man, was always

Real love should draw no blood from the loved and buckets from the lover. It feels wrong to "like" this book. This is not the type of book that you typically enjoy or take pleasure in reading. It invokes too many emotions. There are too many feelings stirred up inside of me to adequately describe this tormenting piece of fiction. This gut wrenching portrait of a young woman's journey was unlike anything I've read before. This book is not a romance novel, it is not a happy tale, nor a heart
