Very few people know that the term 'masochism' derives from the name of a 19th-century Austrian novelist and short-story writer - Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. This book contains three of Sacher-Masoch's erotically-tinged fictional stories - translated into English for the first time from the original German. These tales deal with dominant females and submissive men, and their self-wrought fates.
The short stories contained in this volume are: 'Murder in the Carpathians'; 'The Death Sentence of a Woman'; and 'Under the Whip'. According to Sacher-Masoch himself, some of the elements in these stories stem from his own life experience!
Sacher-Masoch was a seminal and pioneering Austrian writer on a previously un-discussed area of human sexuality. Although he lived and wrote in the 19th century, Sacher-Masoch's stories still possess relevance and fascination for us today.
