• When we were researching the material for 'Sexual Secrets' we studied a vast amount of erotica and put together a collection of Asian Erotic Art. My photographs of this collection formed the basis of the material for 'The Pillow Book'. A selection of the original art was exhibited in 'The Art of Love' Kreitman Gallery, Beverly Hills, CA, 1979.
• People familiar with 'Sexual Secrets' will see many of the original pieces which provided the source material for my drawings in 'The Pillow Book'. A few years later, 'The Pillow Book' was divided into 2 parts, which became the 'Erotic Sentiment' books.
• "Douglas and Slinger's 'Pillow Book' leaves the reader feeling good to have participated even just by looking at a book, in such open acceptance and celebration of the richness and joys of sexual love. The quality of the 139 color plates is good. A fascinating and heartening glimpse of a way of life." Yellow Silk Magazine, 1983.
• "'The Pillow Book' is an exquisitely designed, printed and bound book. The introductory essays are excellent, providing a considered, informative and fascinating introduction to the art. Like Sexual Secrets this is a tastefully designed, joyous book created in the spirit of celebration of the most intimate and giving act which can be experienced between two people." Llewellyn's Review.
