Description:
New York, NY: Pocket Books/Simon & Schuster, 1962. First Edition, 2nd Printing . Soft cover. Good/None as Issued. Text/heavy soiling (coffe spill allowed to dry?) to pgs 52 & 53, and faint margin discoloration. Softcover/Good; strong w/light humidity stain to lower back edge. An outrageous, erotic, comic, satire on sex in the 1960s explored by teens. Author, reputedly "15-year-old Rosalind Erskine", was actually advertising directior and author Roger Erskine Longrigg. Story of Bryant House, an exclusive private girls' school, whose 6th-formers find themselves unable to meet boys or learn about sex. Over at Longcombe school for boys, the equivalent problem was present. exists. The solution is shocking: the girls set up a brodello on campus with a menu of categories and prices. Not suprisingly, book spawned inferior sequels and even a musical. A response to changing mores in America?

[From jacket flaps] Miss Sarah Calendar of the Bryant House School is very nearly fifteen and quite developed, but, alas, she is terribly frustrated (it's not desire - it's curiosity).

Description:
London:: Cape,, 1962.. First edition.. Hardcover. Good/good. 189pp. Contents clean and unmarked - but for a small faint stain to the inner margin at p154-5. In the original binding of dark pink textured boards, corners sharp; spine slightly faded, and with a pale edge at the foot, and a pale patch at the head, corresponding to a tear to the jacket. In the protected unclipped red jacket, spine slightly faded, head frayed and with a closed tear. Author's details to rear panel show the back of her head and reveal that she was then at a finishing school. Not a brilliant copy, and not for younger readers: a transgressive romp of overheated intrigues at a girls' school, and involving boys: told in the first person, and with panache!

Description:
London: Jonathan Cape, 1962. ['Sixties literature] FIRST EDITION. Octavo, pp.189; [3], blank. Publisher's pink cloth, top edge blue, with typographic dust-jacket priced at 15s. A crisp clean, near fine copy in a slightly rubbed jacket. A rather racy novel about the extra curricular activities at an exclusive girls' boarding-school. An early copy of this story was sent to Cape stable-mate Ian Fleming for a possible review, perhaps due to the fact that his current publication was the most sexually explicit of his spy novels, and a shocking departure from his usual 007 capers. This copy was later part of the comprehensive James Bond collection assembled by Jon Gilbert (pencilled notes and signature within). His comprehensive guide to the works of Ian Fleming (2012) won the 16th Breslauer Prize for bibliography. See Gilbert, pp.588, 671.

London: Jonathan Cape, 1962. [Erotic comic novel] FIRST EDITION. Octavo (20 x 14cm), pp.189; [3], blank. Publisher's pink cloth with gilt titles to spine, top edge green, dust-jacket priced at 15s. Contents clean, small splash to fore-edge else fine in a clean, fine wrapper, lightly worn to crown. Now a forgotten classic, Rosalind Erskine's 1962 novel The Passion Flower Hotel caused a sensation and became a bestseller. It tells the story of Bryant House, an exclusive private girls' school whose sixth-formers find themselves unable to meet boys or learn about sex. Over at Longcombe school for boys, the equivalent problem exists. The solution is shocking: the girls set up a brothel in the school basement, with a menu of categories and prices. The book was a runaway success, spawning two sequels, a film starring Nastassja Kinski, and a West End musical with Bond-like score written by John Barry. Cape sent an advance copy to their golden goose Ian Fleming, hoping for a favourable review, accompanied by a…
