Description:
Being overwrought with love produces the
fanatical Severin von Kusiemski himself
unconditionally committed to his classical ideal,
Venus, personified in the imperious
Wanda von Dunajew. What follows is a painful
honest literary testimony about the perfect
submission, which turns into slavery, and which
doomed from the start to end in
betrayal.



Leopold von Sacher-Masoch explains with surgical
precision exposes the slavishly constructed psyche and has,
albeit unintentionally, even passed on his surname
to this sexual entity, masochism. Venus in
fur was unleashed at the time, because of the extravagant
erotic theme, a major scandal in the
media and is still considered the essence of the
fetishistic literature.
