About This Book
Being the history of the adventures and amorous intrigues of a young rake with many beautiful women disclosing a number of voluptuous anecdotes never before printed founded on facts and interspersed with remarkable narratives
There are few rich, truthful novels of erotic realism, but The Loves of a Musical Student is undoubtedly one of them. Its pages seem to breathe an air of truth, and we must not forget that truth is always represented naked. There is not the slightest doubt in our mind that the handsome young tenor who so vividly narrates his love-adventures in these pages really existed and ensnared women's hearts by his sensual warblings of Moore and Byron set to music in the latter days of George IV, before hansom cabs and electrically-lighted music-halls, when ladies drank port-wine negus and men wore heavy stocks round their necks and jeweled broaches stuck in their cravats.
