caitriI picked this up in the laundry room's leave-a-book-take-a-book-pile to read while doing said laundry.
I don't get it. Apparently thirty years ago it's this shocking pornagraphic thing and now it's just a love affair. Um, okay. I don't get why the S&M bits are supposed to be shocking or damaging. The one mention of bloodplay is so brief as to be, well, I don't know what happened or bloody it was as to whether it was really a big deal.
Last of all, why did the author have to go to the hospital/loony bin for help? Help with what? Aside from the inexplicable crying jag she seems fine to me so what's the issue? (Unless of course it's psychotic abusive doctors, not that I'm biased or anything.)
Anyhow, I think it must be like Fantastic Four: it just made sense back then.
