From 'The Story of O' to 'The Sexual Life of Catherine M.', readers have been enthralled with sexually subversive memoirs by women. But even those erotic classics don't navigate the psychosexual terrain that Toni Bentley covers when she meets a lover who introduces her to a radical and unexpected pleasure.
