Austrian writer and journalist, who gained renown for his romantic stories of Galician life. The term masochism is derived from his name. During his lifetime, Sacher-Masoch was well known as a man of letters, a utopian thinker who espoused socialist and humanist ideals in his fiction and non-fiction. Most of his works remain untranslated into English. The novel Venus in Furs is his only book commonly available in English. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopold_...
I've started the best-seller Grey Matters, well... if you want to read something that instructs, better go directly to the source, in this case, the first author about masochism, and afterwards sadism, or both at the same time. This book gives a psychological introduction analysis before the story... I highly recommend it.
