The Scent of Your Breath, the second instalment in the Melissa P.'s series of confessions, is a stirring tale of obsessive love and destructive passion. Melissa, desperate for love and willing to do anything to find it, is now a successful writer in Rome, living with her new lover, Thomas. But as soon as she meets Viola, a woman from Thomas's past, sexual passion and insecurity mount in tandem, and Melissa is consumed with jealousy.

Written as a confessional letter to her mother, the story that follows is one of dark obsession, violent lust, and soul-destroying talent. Driven by Melissa's singular voice - that unique and compelling combination of impetuous naivety and poetic sophistication that has mesmerised readers in thirty-one countries - The Scent of Your Breath blurs the boundaries between reality and fantasy and delves deep into the disturbing yet strangely familiar mind of a teenage girl terrorised by love.

Melissa Panarello (alias Melissa P.) is an Italian writer. She grew up in the small Sicilian town of Aci Castello, near Catania in Italy. She became famous for authoring the erotic novel One Hundred Strokes of the Brush before Bed. The novel, written in diary form, focuses on an extreme sexual life during her teenage years and is loosely based on her own experiences. The book was distributed in forty countries and translated into over thirty languages.

Reviews

“The narrative forms a current of pure feeling, fearless and thrilling.” "A frank and vivid account of sexual rites of passage." "Melissa's candour regarding her extreme experience offers an apprehension, however fleeting, of modern adolescence." "The sex diary of Melissa P shows she is experienced - and wise - beyond her years . . . a combination of candour and intelligence, and a compelling mix of aggression and passivity" Expand reviews
