Joanna Angel will read from her true-life erotic short story “One Last Gang Bang” on Friday, February 14, Valentine’s Day, at 7:30 pm at Skylight Books located at 1818 N. Vermont Avenue in Los Angeles (Los Feliz). The short story appears exclusively in the Cleis Press anthology Best Women’s Erotica of the Year, Volume 5 edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, and is affectionately dedicated to Bill Bailey.

The free reading will also feature Bussel as well as contributors Lauren Emily, CD Reiss, Jayne Renault and Sabrina Sol reading an array of pansexual stories. Copies of the book as well as Joanna Angel’s Choose-Your-Own Erotic Fantasy novel “Night Shift” (Cleis Press) and books by other authors will be available for sale and signing. There will also be lube and sex toy giveaways by sponsors überlube and Le Wand.

The Los Angeles reading is part of Bussel’s book tour for the anthology, which will visit Chicago’s Women and Children First bookstore on February 13. The tour recently took Bussel to House of Scorpio presents Sex Lit: Stoya’s Book Club in Brooklyn. There, Stoya led a discussion about the book with Bussel and contributors Emerald and Caridad Piñeiro as part of the monthly event series.
