100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed is a coming of age memoir about Melissa, a young sexually ravenous girl growing up in Italy. At the age of 14, she decides that she no longer wants to be a virgin and that she will share her body freely to anyone who asks. This takes her through a wildly experimental phase that involves a great deal of sex. When she was ready to publish it, her mother threw it into the trash. It was hyped as a very powerful piece of transgressive fiction and somewhat achieved Love It or Hate It status among readers.
Tropes used in 100 Strokes of the Brush Before Bed include:
- Adults Are Useless: Melissa P's mother periodically comments that her tutor looks creepy but fails to notice what all she is doing.
- All Abusers Are Male: Somewhat upheld. She is just as submissive with women as with men, but women do not take advantage of her the way that men do.
- All Women Are Prudes: Commented on and averted by the narrator, who seems to have a very low opinion of virgins.
- Author Avatar: Obviously, this is Melissa P's memoir.
- BDSM: Melissa acts as a dom for one of her "lovers."
- Bi the Way: Melissa halfway through the novel experiments with bisexuality.
- Ephebophile: Melissa's tutor.
- Even the Girls Want Her: Justified trope in Melissa's case since she does pursue lesbian women.
- Hormone-Addled Teenager: Melissa.
- Hot for Student: Melissa's tutor.
- Incompatible Orientation: Melissa becomes attracted to a lesbian until she realizes just how straight she is.
- It's Not Porn, It's Art: The entire novel has been debated.

- A Party - Also Known as an Orgy: Melissa's final "wild" sexual encounter before she meets the boyfriend at the end of the book.
- Rape as Drama: Melissa P is raped by a stranger and steals money out of his wallet so she can at least feel like a proper prostitute. She acknowledges this experience as rape and after the fact, her fantasies and actions become arguably darker until eventually she calls it quits and stops having casual sex.
