Backyard Girl Cages
I can’t say I understand the caption here. What’s pitiful about her figure? I figure we’re supposed to pity her because of her dire caged-in-the-back-yard plight, but… would it be crass of me to say that what actually moves in me at this fetching vision is something other than pity? Yes, I suppose it would be crass — so, never mind.

Elsewhere on Bondage Blog:
This scene (with some details different) occurs in “Island,” by Richard Laymon (1995). It takes up a significant part of the last half of the book, in fact. Now I can’t help wondering whether Laymon saw this drawing and was inspired.
