Montana had never been to Montana, begins Maxim Jakubowski's new erotic shocker. Following on from the despair and tenderness of his collection Life in the World of Women, the savage and
brutal darkness of It's You That I Want to Kiss, and the bleak and explicit love story of Because She Thought She Loved Me, Maxim Jakubowski now offers his own version of The Story of O. In
this gripping, heartbreaking tale – one with the modern zest of Bunuel's Belle de Jour – a Montreal housewife seeks to fill her emptiness through anonymous encounters in Internet chat rooms
and in airport hotel bars and bedrooms, and these adventures ultimately lead her to a terrifying sexual saga in a New York brownstone.
