“A woman who confesses! Finally! But admitting what? Whatever women have always defended themselves against (but never more so than today). What men have always reproached them for: that they never stop obeying their blood; that everything in them is sex, even their minds. That they need to be constantly fed, constantly washed and daubed, constantly beaten. All they need is a good master, and one who doesn’t trust his kindness.”
O is a young, beautiful fashion photographer in Paris. One day her lover, René, takes her to a château, where she is enslaved, with René’s approval, and systematically sexually assaulted by various other men. Later, René turns O over to Sir Stephen, an English friend who intensifies the brutality. But the final humiliation is yet to come.
The classic erotic novel, Histoire d’O (The Story Of O) relates the love of a beautiful Parisian fashion photographer for Rene. As part of that intense love, she demands debasement and severe sexual and pychological tests. It is a unique work not to be missed.
