Venus in Furs

This is supposed to be a book with a sense of humor. Why is it being narrated by an overly-serious, crackly-voiced whining man? And having him read the female parts in a slightly raised voice is funny in the wrong way. Impossible to get lost in this very interesting story.

The story , a guy saying he wants to submit , could be wonderful if told in an interesting, realistic way which this is not. The reader was good but i have nobody to compare it with. Jeremy Irons read Lolita and anything is downhill after that, eh. I listened to Roth\’s \’Sabbath\’s Theater\’ and \’Venus in Furs\’ is so tame in comparison. After 3 hours of this i can\’t handle it anymore. It\’s written well enough i suppose but the guy, Gregor or whatever name he goes by, and his \’dominatrix\’ are so boring after 3 hours of conversation which goes \’no place\’. They talk about submitting and dominating for 3 hours while doing neither. As long as they \’talk about submitting and being a slave\’ , and such talk , just remains \’talk\’. Jabbering about the same thing in ridiculous language. I want to be your slave , no i don\’t yes i do. I want to dominate you no i don\’t yes i do. I\’ll die for you then good that means i can kill you if i want to. I didn\’t know you were this bad. I am not this bad oh i am this bad yes i am no i\’m not yes you are no you aren\’t yes i am. There\’s nothing interesting about this. Both people, obviously, are as self absorbed and selfish and self centered as two people can get.

this was rediculous. I fast forwarded most of it, then deleted all together. Going from chapter to chapter, story never changed
