Story Of O Reviews

""'A rare thing, a pornographic book well written and without a trace of obscenity'" * Graham Greene *
"`A remarkable piece of work'" * Harold Pinter *
"A highly literary and imaginative work, the brilliance of whose style leaves one in no doubt whatever of the author's genius...a profoundly disturbing book, as well as a black tour-de-force" * Spectator *
"Here all kinds of terrors await us, but like a baby taking its mother's milk all pains are assuaged. Touched by the magic of love, everything is transformed. Story of O is a deeply moral homily" * J.G. Ballard *
