Post-war London. Louisa, a smartly dressed young woman in the midst of a divorce, meets a charismatic man in a pub, and within an hour has been sexually conquered by him on a garden bench. Thus begins her baffling but magnetic love affair with Richard Gordon.
Gordon, a psychiatrist, keeps Louisa in his thrall with his almost omniscient ability to see through her, and she is equally gripped by the unexpected pleasure of complete submission. Subjecting herself to repeated humiliations at his hands, but quite unable and unwilling to free herself from his control, Louisa and Gordon sink further and further into the depths - both psychologically and sexually.
An extraordinary novel of psycho-sexual entanglement that was banned for indecency in England in 1966, in "Gordon", Edith Templeton captures one of the most unusual and disturbing love stories ever written. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Gordon (Edith Templeton)
