Nothing Natural

Nothing Natural

Nothing Natural is the debut novel by Jenny Diski written in 1986. It tells the story of how the heroine Rachel gets involved in a sado-maschocistic relationship with the charming but domineering Joshua. The book was controversial at the time and sold well. It was generally criticised by feminists but praised by others. The BDSM community was scornful regarding the sex as quite tame but Rachel's personality is described in detail and the reader comes to sympathise with her.[1]
