The Story of O?

Has anybody read "The Story of O?" I found it highly disturbing, at times, I even had to take a break and go back to reading a few days later...nevertheless, I found it very interesting because:
1- It was written by a woman.
2- I believe the book had a deeper message than the obvious.

If you've read it, please let me know what you gathered from the book.

Does happiness interfere with world peace?

Considering a 'pursuit of happiness' we can generally describe this as 'doing as we want' or 'doing what makes us happy'. If doing what we want includes doing war against another, then the pursuit of happiness in counter productive to the goal of world peace.

If waring with a neighbour makes us happy, if waring with another religion makes us happy, if waring with a conflicting political system makes us happy then, the pursuit of happiness ends world peace.

Is happiness counterproductive to world peace?

What do you think this passage means?

I see darkness in myself.
I see the light as knowledge and the wisdom of the world and
understanding others,
and in order for me to be a, to be a true human being,
I can't forever dwell in darkness,
I can't forever dwell in the idea,
of just identifying with people like me and understanding me and mine.

What is the best way to show a teacher he's wrong...nicely of course?

To explain, I have a Theatrical Arts teacher at my high school, he is one of my favorite in the entire school, a truly amazing educator. But up until now, I thought maybe he was a little more fair, and just than he really is.
He chooses favorites, now he would never admit to it, but he does. So when he is casting a play, it's the same people every time, and it's for all of the wrong reasons. I don't consider myself a seasoned critic, but the last play he cast had a terrible lead who was constantly falling into his old acts. There were so many other hopefuls with much better skills, but for some reason, he didn't pick them.
A rule in theatre is that if you have to coach your character out of one of their past roles, you shouldn't be wasting your time on them.
My teacher is a great guy, but how do I show him that there are better people out there, how do the actors and actresses as a group make him realize that he can't pick favorites if they aren't any good?
