She humps a log in the first chapter

Yep, you read it correctly. Patti Smith was alluding to this book in her poem "babelogue: "each bolt of wood, like the log of Helen, was my pleasure."
Cultural rich erotica
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
The plot is extremely rich, and the skill of the author is very high in Helen and Desire. But do becareful not to get the Book of the Month Club edition of this book, as it was heavily censored and missed many passages compared to the other editions.

Written by Trocchi in 1 week, the story of Helen Seferis. A woman who enjoys sensual pleasures to their fullest (...)She enjoys being their pleasure toy. Begins with her running away from home in Australia and ending up going all over the world as a prostitute, a slave, etc.Probably Trocchi's most famous erotic work. One of the founding books of Olympia Press. Well written and erotic, even for a novel written for sex's sake.
