9. The Story of O
The Story of O - Pauline Reage (Anne Desclos)
This was given to me by a guy at work. Yes, the same guy who gave me the Batman "graphic novel". I won't be getting any more books from him. He is obviously not into the same stuff I like.
This is a story about a woman who becomes her lover's slave. They are into a world of sado-masochism, bondage and disciplne. I just can't relate.
I read some information on-line about the book and find the history of the book and it's author a little interesting, but the book itself didn't do much for me.

Kind of weird that this is the book that he chose to lend you. I mean even if it was my favorite book ever, I'm not sure it's the kind of thing I would try and push upon a co-worker.
ReplyDeleteHe is a weird guy. He sometimes says and does things to provoke people and to get a reaction. I will assume that is why he handed me this book.
ReplyDeleteMy only reaction will be this blog post, which he will probably never see.
I felt the same way about this book when I read it in college.
