Lorsque le Prince éveille la belle au bois dormant, nous sommes une fois encore sous le charme de ce conte légendaire. Le Prince, conquis par l'exquise perfection de la Belle décide de la ramener dans son royaume... Mais ici, la jeune ingénue n'est libérée de la prison de son sommeil que pour devenir prisonnière - et servante - de l'amour.
A son arrivée au Palais de son nouveau maître, la Belle découvre avec effroi des coutumes inconnues : plusieurs dizaines de jeunes Princes et Princesses venus des royaumes vassaux, appelés les Tributs, assouvissent les désirs et les fantasmes de la Cour tout entière. Fessées au battoir d'or, caresses aux pétales de leurs et batifolages plus pervers ont de rigueur. Tout à son innocence, l'infortunée va être initiée à l'amour, dans le plaisir et la douleur.
Avec brio, élégance et drôlerie, Anne Rice a détourné cette histoire si morale en un conte érotique, où sous les soieries et le satin, dans l'odeur de l'encens et de roses, règnent les jeux cruels de la domination et de la soumission.

Work Description
In the traditional folktale of "Sleeping Beauty," the spell cast upon the lovely young princess and everyone in her castle can only be broken by the kiss of a Prince. It is an ancient story, one that originally emerged from and still deeply disturbs the mind's unconscious. In the first book of the trilogy, Anne Rice, writing as A.N. Roquelaure, retells the Beauty story and probes the unspoken implications of this lush, suggestive tale by exploring its undeniable connection to sexual desire. Here the Prince awakens Beauty, not with a kiss, but with sexual initiation. His reward for ending the hundred years of enchantment is Beauty's complete and total enslavement to him . . . as Anne Rice explores the world of erotic yearning and fantasy in a classic that becomes, with her skillful pen, a compelling experience. Readers of Fifty Shades of Grey will indulge in Rice’s deft storytelling and imaginative eroticism, a sure-to-be classic for years to come.
