About Fifty Shades of Grey
The trilogy of books by British author E L James — Fifty Shades of Grey, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed — tell the story of the relationship between graduate Anastasia Steele and young billionaire Christian Grey, a relationship that grows in sexual intensity as Christian introduces his new partner to the world of submission and dominance that he inhabits. The three parts of the trilogy began life as virtual publishing hits, eventually making their way to mainstream publication and the top of the best-seller lists. The series has sold more than 50 million copies worldwide, including more than 32 million copies in the U.S. by Vintage Books. In the process, the books have become a cultural phenomenon, attracting extensive press and media coverage as well as licensing interest.
