The great virtue of this volume is that it reveals a lighter, comic side of Sade. He was a man obsessed, like many great writers, and his obsessions are still present here: his hatred of all things pretentious, his loathing of a corrupt judicial system, his damning of hypocrisy and false piety. One of the great anarchists of all time, he was nevertheless far from mad (as many pretended) and these works of fiction shed another light on this most feverish of minds.

Underneath the patina of civilized society lies the Sadean demimonde: a bundle of lustful appetites fueled by momentary impulse and a desire for unfettered indulgence. And the target of this savagery: Justine de Bertole, a pious and virginal heroine. Grotesque, inhumane, and compelling, Sade’s novel overturns Rousseau’s views of the social contract, and the common trope that punishment only visits sinners, to deliver a passionate treatise on good and evil, virtue and sin.

"The 120 Days of Sodom" is "the most impure tale that has ever been told since our world began".

Schamlose sexuelle Ausschweifungen, obszöne Orgien und sogar erschreckende Grausamkeiten sind es, die die Werke des Donatien Alphonse Francois de Sade prägen.

I'm trapped on a harsh, snow-covered planet waiting to be hunted, with no way of escape. I know that the alien warrior chief with purple skin and a cutting tail is coming for me, but I've got no intention of letting him take me. I'll fight him with hands and fists, knives and teeth. I'll fight the rising heat between us. I'll fight the ache in my chest where an empty hole beats, serving as a painful reminder that once, before his kind took from me, I had a heart. It’s a heart that the warrior thinks is his. And unfortunately, he's unafraid to fight for what he wants.

De Sade, der die meiste Zeit seines Lebens in Irrenanstalten und Gefängnissen verbringen musste, protestiert in seinem Roman gegen sämtliche gesellschaftlichen Konventionen seiner Zeit, den Glauben, die Kirche, Familienbande, Freundschaft, Schuld und Scham. Der Herzog von Blangis ließ 42 Jugendliche auf seinem Schloss gefangen setzen. Unterstützt von drei anderen Wüstlingen - einem Kirchenfürsten, einem Richter und einem Financier - wird er an seinen Gefangenen alle nur denkbaren Perversionen verüben, sich immer mehr in irren und unvorstellbaren Wahn steigern, um sein Ziel zu erreichen: Perversionen mit tödlichem Ausgang.

"Philosophy in the Bedroom" ("La philosophie dans le boudoir") was written in 1795 by the Marquis de Sade, while imprisoned in the Bastille. It is a work of erotism, laced with socio-political subversion. The main characters are libertines, who decided to give a young maiden their own brand of sex education.

"Justine, or The Misfortunes of Virtue", is an early work by the Marquis de Sade. It is a novella, written in two weeks while he was imprisoned in the famous Bastille. Unlike some of his other works, it is not just a catalogue of sadism. It is meant to bring new life to an old genre, which had the reader accustomed to see virtue eventually triumph after trials only meant to bring out its value. Sade would have none of that in Justine: in her quest for virtue, the main character keeps falling into terrible situations, which humiliate her and present her with sexual lessons hidden under the mask of virtue.

"Perfectionne ta physique, et tu comprendras mieux la nature ; épure ta raison, bannis tes préjugés, et tu n'auras plus besoin de ton dieu." Tout est là-dedans. L'œil droit et fier, le menton relevé, le buste gonflé. Parfois hautain et arrogant, Sade balayant les arguments en faveur de Dieu et de la religion d'un ton virulent et sans demi-mesure, la prose farouchement athée du Marquis est pleinement esthétique, et même plus, si expressive et savoureuse. Cette rébellion n'est pas vide de philosophie, d'humanisme, d'une certaine forme de sagesse athée, ou d'un esprit raisonnable assez ouvert et doté de bon sens, pour pouvoir sur quelques points séduire même les croyants.

Este diálogo nos ofrece la discusión entre un hombre que se encuentra al borde de la muerte y un sacerdote. El clérigo pretende que se arrepienta de sus pecados para que pueda morir dignamente como cristiano, sin embargo, el moribundo es un hombre ingenioso y filósofo que irá rebatiendo, uno por uno, los débiles argumentos expuestos por el cura.
