Inimesed üle terve maailma soovivad kogeda valu, alustades BDSM-mängudest magamistoas, usuga seotud askeesist ja ultramaratonidest ning lõpetades balletitantsu ja talisuplusega. Miks valu meid nii väga ahvatleb?Masohhismi põlatakse, jumaldatakse ja nauditakse. Vastastikusel kokkuleppel meelega põhjustatud valu on olnud meiega aastatuhandeid. Seda on kogenud Musta Surma ajal tegutsenud enesepiitsutajad, murtud luudega baleriinid ja söömisvõistlustel osalejad, kes kugistavad nuttes teravaid pipraid. See pesitseb ka tätoveerimishuvilistes ja töönarkomaanides. Masohhism on osa meist.Sisuliselt on masohhism seotud enda halvasti ja seejärel paremini tundmisega.Autor Leigh Cowart pole ainult teadlane ja teaduskirjanik, vaid kogenud ja teravaid elamusi otsiv masohhist. Proovides paljusid masohhismiga seotud tegevusi oma nahal ja rääkides ala ekspertidega, näitab Cowart, kuidas meie ihu ja hing leiavad valust tähendust ja leevendust. Masohhism on meie olemuses leiduv veidrus, mis soodustab distsipliini ja arenemist, kuid ähvardab meid samal ajal tervenisti endale allutada.

A decent, if standard, experience. It possessed moments of brilliance, but the narrative felt slightly disjointed ultimately. Suitable if your reading queue is empty.
