How are we defining "Romance"? I'm going to go on a stretch and nominate Anaïs Nin's
Delta of Venus (Penguin Classics ebook) primarily because I've bought it but haven't yet gotten around to reading it!
edit...Adding Penguin's blurb
Quote:
In Delta of Venus Anaïs Nin conjures up a glittering cascade of sexual encounters. Creating her own 'language of the senses', she explores an area that was previously the domain of male writers and brings to it her own unique perceptions. Her vibrant and impassioned prose evokes the essence of female sexuality in a world where only love has meaning.
