The Altar of Venus: The Notorious Confession of a Libertine (sometimes published under the title The Altar of Venus: The Erotic Education of an Edwardian Gentleman) is an anonymous erotic novel from the early 20th century. A work of fiction, it purports to be the reminiscences of a rakish Englishman and his sexual encounters and exploits in London and the bordellos of Paris, depicting a culture on a sexual precipice. Explicit and descriptive, definitely one for an adult audience.
