 <\/p>\n

In 1882, Lou Andreas Salom\u00e9, Frederick Nietzsche, and Paul R\u00e9e posed for a photograph (at Nietzsche\u2019s suggestion) to commemorate their decision to live together in a sexless, m\u00e9nage \u00e0 trois intellectual community. The famous photograph shows the two men harnessed to a cart with Lou holding a branch in the fashion of a whip. William Bayer has used this photo as a basis to author a dark psychoanalytic thriller, centering on the lives of Salom\u00e9, Nietzsche, Freud, and Hitler, as the key to solving the mysterious death of a modern-day Oakland, California dominatrix, through the efforts of Tess, a brilliant performance artist. An unusual assortment of characters to manage, but Bayer pulls it off in grand style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
