‘[Probably] the first 53-year-old eunuch to be a romantic hero.’ -Publisher’s Weekly
I am a eunuch.
They cut off my stones.
They stole my seed.
I do not know what either men or women are entitled to.
All I know is what I want...
I want to know that I am a man.
From USA Today Bestselling Author Robin Schone comes Muhamed’s story from The Lady’s Tutor, a cross-genre erotic historical novel that has been translated into 12 languages. THE WIDOW AND THE EUNUCH is a profoundly moving exploration of what makes a 53-year-old eunuch ‘a man’ and a barren 48-year-old widow ‘a woman,’ and reaffirms that love truly makes us more than the labels with which society brands us.
AUTHOR’S NOTES: THE WIDOW AND THE EUNUCH was originally published in the anthology Fascinated under the title ‘A Man and A Woman.’ This is a passionate, intense story about castration and it’s life-long effects on a man’s sexuality. It’s raw and erotic and painful, but also cathartic and healing.
