|description_of_content='''Book Bohemian Taboo Stories - About People Who Do Something Sexy''' is a book aiming to contribute to destigmatisation of taboo eroticism or human sexuality as well as to discourse on true moral values in a society where eroticism and sex usually appear as another issue, instead of dealing with the true problems. The book is a collection of twenty interesting stories of people who found the courage to get to know themselves as well as their bodies and their true erotic needs and, in their profession or leisure time, chose a direction which eroticism and sex is, in one way or another, reflected, whether directly.

Then the Facebook page made invisible for public. After sending request for the review and discussion with some Facebook content admin, when we sent explanation about the book, the social, art and education meaning of the book and our posts, the content admin promised to review our request, the page has been deleted instead. We'v lost contact with all fans and all crowdfunding contributors. Then we had to create new Facebook page.
