12 reviews for Venus in Furs

  1. Anshu Singh

    This book messed with my head. The themes are quite provocative, and it’s not an easy read, but it’s impactful.

  2. Prateek Jayant

    A powerful and unsettling novel that challenges conventional notions of love and desire. Highly recommended for open-minded readers.

  3. Yasaswani Akula

    A brilliantly written exploration of masochism. The writing style might be difficult for some. The themes are dark, so be warned.

  4. Vaishnavi Sanjay Bhandari

    An intense exploration of power dynamics. Wanda is a force to be reckoned with! Severin’s journey is captivating, in a twisted way.

  5. Aryaman Rawat

    I found ‘Venus in Furs’ to be thought-provoking and unsettling. It’s a classic for a reason, though it’s not for everyone.

  6. Aakanksha Singh

    A disturbing yet fascinating read. Leopold von Sacher-Masoch definitely knew how to explore the darker sides of desire. Not for the faint of heart!

  7. Alvin Clin Narzary

    This book is weird, but in a good way. Very thought-provoking and explores taboo subjects. I would recommend for mature readers.

  8. Pragati Bisht

    I had mixed feelings about this book. I appreciate its literary significance, but the content made me uncomfortable at times.

  9. Kanishka Verma

    Interesting from a historical perspective, but I didn’t find the story particularly engaging. The characters lacked depth.

  10. Ankit Rawat

    Venus in Furs is a strange book. I was intrigued but also somewhat repulsed by the characters and their interactions.

  11. Parmar Manank Pravinbhai

    Venus in Furs is a captivating and disturbing look into the world of desire and submission. Wanda’s character is unforgettable!

  12. Ashish Kumar

    Not my cup of tea. I struggled to connect with the characters or the story. It felt more like a psychological case study.
