Book Description: “What an absolute pleasure to read, escaping our own dull lives into blissful abandon of self-indulgent behavior, laughing all the while.”- Sacramento Book Review Alan said I was boring. But I'm actually very flexible. My mother used to say I was double-jointed.—Paula Paula is still smarting from being called boring by Alan, her longtime boyfriend. Then he leaves her for Belinda, the egotistic would-be partner of accountancy firm Smith, Smith-Brown and Smith. Her mother suggests she spice up her life, so Paula joins the local fetish club. Luda the transvestite is not fooled when Paula enters Club Liscious. Her off-the-shoulder dress cannot turn her into a thrill-seeking member of the Liscious elite. “She” decides to have nothing to do with the newcomer. Over the next few weeks, the club-goers’ suspicion turns to friendship, and “boring” Paula recruits Luda, gentle Dominatrix Gretchen, and bossy SlaveBoy to help her win Alan back. Meanwhile, Alan’s new fiancée Belinda, locked in a bitter battle for a promotion with her paraplegic colleague, starts working on Alan’s own lack of ambition. Both a comedy and a satire on accountants’ status obsessions, Sadomasochism for Accountants is a look behind the masks people wear and the roles they play between the sheets and the spreadsheets. This is a comedy for fans of Little Miss Sunshine and Pedro Almodóvar’s Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. Rosy Barnes graduated in fine art, English literature, and theater directing before moving to Dublin to form a theater company. Her comic radio play The Dog House was an RTE Times’ Pick of the Week and was shortlisted for the PJ O’Connor Award. She lives in Scotland. |
