The Story of O by Pauline Réage When French publisher Jean Paulhan told his lover Anne Desclos that no woman could produce a truly erotic novel, she wrote Histoire d'O , about a Parisian fashion photographer who submits herself to any sexual desire her lover has, including blindfolds and piercings. Paulhan called the book "the most ardent love letter that any man has ever received," and the two agreed to have it published in 1954, using the pseudonym Pauline Réage. (Desclos would later use another pseudonym, Dominique Aury, to mask her identity further.)
