Is there any other work of kinky erotic literature that's even remotely as good as the Story of O?

NSFW

I've been sexting with a newer submissive and when I learned she'd never read Story of O, I naturally had to make her read it. She texted me some passages she liked and it made me want to pick it back up, since it's been a few years. And in just a few pages, it mesmerized me all over again.

Is there any other book that even comes close? Any other book that's equally as mysterious, kinky, beautifully-written, and so damn sexy?

I've read plenty of erotica, but none of it is as literary or philosophical.

I've read plenty of literary fiction, but none of it is as sexy or kinky.

Frankly even like, de Sade doesn't come close for me, though admittedly I've only read Philosophy in the Boudoir. Which I do love, but for the humor as much as the sex. Maybe I should finally read one of his novels.

Is there any other novel that hits like Story of O does?
