Great book. True submission brings ultimate power. To be debased is to be venerated. Amazingly liberating.

Someone told me that book was written porn. Needless to say, sounds interesting.

It's erotica, it's not porn. Huge difference.

well like every great book it was made into a film that is just porn, but very artsy. If you live in the UK or Ireland and are up late on a Saturday night you're bound to catch it on Channel4. I can't decide if the film is an adaptaion of the book or really just an excuse to make a porn film and saying 'No it's ok it's based on a book.' to anyone who is against the idea. Anyway I'll let you judge for yourself, I'm sure you can get it on Ebay.

my library finally got the book in today...so yay


as for the question of why we try to interpret his lyrics


i cant speak for anyone but myself..since i dont really know anyone here...but i dont try to understand his meanings and emotions,


i relate so well to his music, i try to interpret how i feel from the lyrics.....what trains of thought it brings to me, what things do i finally observe that i hadnt before.


i guess thats why he brings me inspiration..


and on a philosophical aspect...the concept of o is something so vast and complex, it literally has endless possibilites of thought behind it.


o is a circle...neverending, repetetive,like so many things in life, behavioral patterns, life cycle, the food chain....so on..so on..so on....but this is too complex to really try to share my views on it, cuz id be writing and explaining examples for hours...Edited by: unexplainedmuse

Film isn't porn either- it contains absolutely no genital shots at all (if you'll pardon the pun). Frontal female nudity, but no explicit sexual images. It's all implicit, instead, and all the more erotic for that!


Very intelligent book, very intelligent film.
