Who but the Marquis de Sade would write, not of the pain, tragedy, and joy of love, but of its crimes? Murder, seduction, and incest are among the cruel rewards for selfless love in these stories; tragedy, despair, and death the inevitable outcome. Sade's villains will stop at nothing to satisfy their depraved passions, and they in turn suffer under the thrall of love. Psychologically astute and defiantly unconventional, these tales show Sade at his best. A skilled and artful storyteller, he is also an intellectual who asks questions about society, about ourselves, and about life, for which we have yet to find the answers.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Marquis de SadePublisher: Peter Owen PublishersPublished: 12/01/2002ISBN: 9780720611830Pages: 200Weight: 0.33lbsSize: 7.62h x 6.40w x 0.43d
