Review: Adolescent romantic/sexual fantasy

This is a faithful, irony-free transcription of the sort of sexual fantasy one often sees parodied, or at least made a bit more emotionally complex, in these postmodern, metatextual days.  Jamilah's all "Master, forgive me for my crime!" and Zahir's all "hah, I caught you, and now I shall 'punish' you by having sex with you while you are totally helpless to resist and are kind of making a token resistance but we both know this is really what you want isn't it my little desert flower."  Kind of seventeenth-century as exotic sexual fantasies go, but whatever floats your boat.  It's written in fairly grammatical English, though the highfalutin' Arabian-played-by-Anne-Baxter-speak ("Daughter of your most humble servant") doesn't always mesh well with random bits of modern slang and sex talk.
