'''''Le lien''''' is the only novel written by [[Vanessa Duriès]].
<br>{{wehave|The Ties that Bind}}<br>


This is an autobiographical story. It tells the story of Laika, a young student, who is initiated to [[BDSM]] and then her evolution as a slave, and also of her growing love relationship with her master, Pierre. It also provides some insight into the devastating effects of the revelation of her sexual orientation on her relationship with her parents.
'''Vanessa Duriès''', also known as '''Katia Lamara''' (1972 – December 13, 1993), was a French novelist.


After enduring years of corporal punishment by her father, a young and very much beautifull Vanessa realizes that `Not having the nature of an Amazon, not knowing how to oppose violence with cruelty, I learnt to dominate those who used me by making the offering of my submission both mystical and ambiguous' ...... and thus is born a female slave into the somewhat secretive world of S&M in France in the 1990's.
==Biography==
She was the author of the French [[BDSM]] novel ''[[Le lien]]'' (translated into English as ''The Ties that Bind'')  based on her own experience as a [[Master/slave (BDSM)|BDSM slave]]. She created quite a stir in France at the time of the release of the novel, due to her youth and beauty, and appeared on national television, in particular in the "Bernard Pivot" show. She also appeared in a pictorial and an interview of the May 1993 issue of the French edition of ''[[Penthouse (magazine)|Penthouse]]'' magazine.


Right from the first chapter, `The Revelation' , the author introduces us to Pierre, her much `loved' master whom she meets at the age of twenty. In the book, without delving into any of the details of their introduction we find a young Vanessa, although apprehensive about her secret feelings, completely accept and resign herself to her `slave' state of mind and body when she visits Pierre at his countryside mansion. Although Pierre is her master, the author maintains an absolute dedication to her feelings, emotions, thrills and fears as she is introduced and educated into the true and dedicated sadomasochistic lifestyle of a slave master relationship.
Duriès died in a car crash on December 13, 1993 in the South of France at age 21. Because of her early death, she has achieved a cult status for some [[BDSM]] communities. In 2007, five chapters of her second novel ''[[L'Étudiante (novel)|L'Étudiante]]'', left unfinished due to her death, were published in France.


This is, in effect, the mastery of this wonderful young author and the point at which other S&M books totally fall apart since it's pretty well impossible for either the master or the slave to completely comprehend and, honestly write about, the erotic mindset of the other. With the precision of a whip Vanessa intricately describes her slave education in the hands of not only her master but also, of course, a small and very much secretive group of other masters and slaves, both male and female.
Three other people also died in the crash. The 2007 edition published in Paris by [[Groupe Flammarion|J'ai Lu]] <ref group="Note"> "L'Étudiante suivi de Le Lien", Éditions Blanche, {{ISBN|978-2-290-00617-7}}</ref> which includes an avant-propos by Duriès' editor Franck Spengler and a preface by Florence Dugas, is dedicated: "À la mémoire de Vanessa Duriès, Nathalie Perreau, Jean-Pierre Imbrohoris et leur fils décédés tragiquement le 13 décembre 1993". Spengler avows he was editor to Nathalie Perreau, also, and a friend of Jean-Pierre Imbrohoris. Published in this edition is a short letter written by Duriès to Franck Spengler, inserted between chapters two and three of "L'Étudiante".


Vanessa unabashedly describes her relationship with an awe that she is living the life of total sexual and physical abandon with her much loved master. In her own words, `Pierre ia and organizer beyond compare. Since sharing his life . we schedule usually quite eventful weekends throughout the year. When we return, on Sunday evenings, I often find myself in a state close to exhaustion. Pierre is no less tired than me. The role of the master is exhausting, because, while the slave only submits, the master must decide, organize, prepare and take action, all the while watching over the physical and psychic state of the slave that he has decided to honor through tests and humiliation.'

One very sad note, unfortunately, Vanessa Duries died in a traffic accident in 1993 about seven months after the publishing of this masterwork, truly a loss from a very much talented writer.

Finally, the book has an introduction by Marie Isabel Pita one of today's hottest writers of contemporary erotica, and an afterword by Maxim Jakubowski where he briefly describes the discovery of the lost French edition of this book and his investigation into the last years of life of the author.
