Venus in Furs: Sacher-Masoch

Written in 1870, "Venus in Furs" by Leopold Sacher-Masoch, narrates the dialogues and sexual practices of the protagonists: Severin and Wanda, a couple who formally records through a contract that Severin becomes Wanda's sexual slave. In his private life, Masoch signed a similar six-month contract with his lover, Baroness Fanny de Pistor, making Severin nothing more than the author's alter ego and Wanda a kind of replica of Fanny. We invite you to delve into the intriguing world of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch and explore his revolutionary work. Discover why his bold exploration of the darker aspects of sexuality and relationships has left a mark on literature and continues to challenge conventions to this day.
