Book description
'Sadopaideia' is a shocking, explicit, classic tale of Sado Masochism
at the heart of English high society. Set in London and the Dorset
coast, in an era of English history where corporal punishment was freely
dispensed, the characters represent the core principles of disobedience,
chastisement and compliance.
How far is too far?
Cecil Prendergast has a problem. He has been selected by Muriel
Harcourt and her maid as the third dimension in their relationship. The
'problem' is that Muriel likes to beat Cecil's backside with a bamboo
cane. Before long, a new master emerges - and Cecil finally asserts his
dominance. Through disciplinary scenes, he wages a war of retribution
via stinging pleasure and mutual consent - and punishes Muriel, her maid
and Muriel's two nieces in turn. 'Sadopaideia' was originally
published in 1907, in Paris, within two volumes. The author remains
anonymous.
