In her pursuit, she also joins

Years ago, I lived in a charming Harlem walk-up with lots of exposed brick and not much of a decorating budget.

S&M is like “commedia dell’arte: a stock repertoire of stories, bits, lines, and gags,” muses writer Chris Kraus. Kraus’s short story (“Emotional Technologies”) is one of 15 in the recent anthology Kink, published earlier this year, which thoroughly explores the sexual practice.
