The classic erotic novel, 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.

I found it to be almost innocent and more psychological then anything else but maybe that's just how I see things!

A classic though? I would say so.” read more
