This is a play/movie, not a book,but I'm going to have to recommend Bent by Martin Sherman. The weird thing is, there's no actual sex, it's all talk and imagination, but the way it's handled- well, you can watch it here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HccQhITRXQk).

As far as written sex scenes are concerned, I generally prefer scenes that talk about what the characters are feeling as opposed to "He put his X in her Y."; I find it less crude. With that in mind, the dream!sex scenes in A Great And Terrible Beauty are pretty good, as are Juliet Marillier's (The Sevenwaters Trilogy, Wolfskin, and Foxmask) and Elizabeth Hand's (Waking the Moon, Mortal Love
