A story about trust, domination and pleasure.

This erotic book tells of a man, Severin von Kusiemski, so infatuated with a woman, Wanda von Dunajew, that he requests to be treated as her slave, and encourages her to take care of him in progressively more degrading ways.

At first Wanda will not understand or relate with the demand, but after humouring Severin a bit she finds the advantages of the method to become arousing and enthusiastically embraces the theory; though at exactly the same time, she disdains Severin for permitting her to do so.

Venus in Furs is a book by the popular Austrian erotic author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch.
