Title: stereotypes throughout
Review: I know that sexual fantasies can and are full of stereotypes and one or two in a novel or a short story can be great. But this novel, which was a best seller in Europe when it came out in German in 1987, has almost nothing but stereotypes. There's the boss controlled by the female underling who really seems incapable of true affection. They both seem to have a mental illness or at least emotional problems. She's cold and wears lots of leather and boots; so are all her female friends, even the lesbians who are still attracted to the main male character. And finally, and most disappointing, there's the death or faked death of one of the characters. I'm so tired of books claiming to be BDSM and yet fulfiliing all the negative stereotypes.
