Masochism: Coldness and Cruelty & Venus in Furs by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, Gilles Deleuze, Jean McNeil

3.0

Read at least part of this for my critical theory/dead white men class at Macalester senior year and thought it would be interesting to take another look at.

Honestly, without the help of a prof, Deleuze's section was pretty over my head, even with the notes I'd already written in the margins. I do not have the prerequisite knowledge of philosophy and psychoanalysis to really understand most of what he's arguing here.

However, I highly enjoyed Sacher-Masoch's prose. I just wish I'd understood the analysis better.
