Readers say: “It’s relighting a fire under a lot of marriages…It makes you feel sexy again, reading the books.” – Founder of DivaMoms.com Lyss Stern.
Plot Overview: The book focuses on the lives of billionaire Christian Grey and college student Anastasia Steele who enter into an S&M relationship (he’s dominant, she’s submissive). The narrative is explained through prose typical of pulp fiction novels a la Mills & Boon.
The synopsis reads: Shocked yet thrilled by Grey’s singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success – his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving adoptive family – Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a passionate, physical and daring affair, Ana learns more about her own dark desires, as well as the Christian Grey hidden away from public scrutiny.
The Characters:
Christian Grey is a 27 yo handsome billionaire who has built a business empire in Seattle from nothing. Grey is the CEO of Grey Enterprises Holding Inc. Among taking romantic walks on the beach Gray is into kinky sex. His favorite items include expensive art, horse riding whips, money, handcuffs and “mergers and takeovers” if you know what I mean.
Anastasia Steele is an innocent girl who enters into BDSM relationships with Grey who consents to being stalked, slapped and whipped. Steele also says things like “My inner goddess is doing the dance of seven veils.”
Themes, Motifs and Symbols:
Dominance / Subservience: The major theme of the book is the relationship between the yin and yang of the dominant versus the submissive. Grey’s desire for sexual power is introduced early when he stalks and seduces Anastasia. Anastasia’s personality traits of innocence, youth and submissive temperament are the perfect foil for James Spader Christian Grey. Note obvious similarities to the relationship in another S&M love story from pop culture, The Secretary.
