There's Sappho and her lyre, Coleridge's Damsel playing her dulcimer, there's the Witch Virgin sweeping her broom, the musician holding her guitar, her bass guitar or her cello, the writer writing fairytales on an ancient typewriter - this book contains a multitude of Dutch Virgins in various incarnations against backgrounds that do not necessarily have to be Dutch but usually are, and offers a colorful and thorough narrative of erotic divinity and aesthetic virtue from the other side of reality
