This is the 1961 version of a book about sexual life written by the danish surgeon J. Fabricius-Møller. This cover makes me want to wash my hands or something.

The picture is from the french movie by Jean-Jacques Beineix from 1981, one of my absolute favorite among the french movies from the eighties, where coolness and passion were important.

Book Cover #19

This is a swedish book from 1966. I'm not sure if it's a novel or biographical, since I never read the book. Anyway the book is about the problems in Congo in the sixties.

Am I the only one finding this cover a bit obscene?
