About this audiobook
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 treat him in progressively more degrading ways.
At first Wanda does not understand or relate to the request, but after humouring Severin a bit she finds the advantages of the method to be arousing and enthusiastically embraces the idea; though at the same time, she disdains Severin for allowing her to do so.
Venus in Furs is a book by the well known Austrian erotic author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch.
Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch
Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch was an Austrian writer of fiction and short stories, who inspired the clinical category of ‘Masochism’. His complex sexual fantasies, involving the love of pain and submission, ignited a once secretive pursuit into that of a recognised fetish. His masterpiece inspired a famous song of the same name by The Velvet Underground, and continues to be referred to as a defining work within the realm of erotic literature.
