JulietteMarquis de Sade

A new translation of Sade's most notorious, shocking, and influential novel. Winner of the 2017 Scott Moncrieff Prize This distressing but hugely important text has influenced countless individuals throughout history: Flaubert and Baudelaire both read Sade, the surrealists were obsessed with him, film-makers like Pasolini saw parallels with twentieth-century history in his writings, and feminists such as Andrea Dworkin and Angela Carter clashe...

A group of amoral libertines retire to a sealed chateau with an entourage of innocent victims, all of whom are murdered in ways both sexual and Byzantine. De Sade's taste for death and torture may have exceeded the strength of his writing hand, as after many pages of exquisitely detailed sexual mayhem, he begins to dispatch the cast in wholesale lots. Still, the work can inspire fantasies and much thought..

Philosophy In The Boudoir is the most concise, representative text of all the Marquis de Sade's works, containing his notorious doctrine of libertinage expounded in full, coupled with liberal doses of savage, unbridled eroticism, cruelty and violent sexuality. The renegade philosophies put forward here would later rank among the cornerstones of Andre Breton's surrealist manifesto. This new edition includes "Minski the Cruel, a brand-new, unexp...

If de Sade had submitted the original version of Justine to us (from prison) in 1791 we would have rejected it, because it is pure sadism, as is to be expected from the original 'sadist', even though it is wrapped up in philosophy. However, it is now freely available in English as a classic, and has been so for quite a while. This version is simplified rather than toned down, but the actual ages of juveniles have been omitted.. de Sade uses hi...

A collection of letters written from prison by the Marquis de Sade. They are principally written to his beloved (and devoted) wife and to his hated mother-in-law, Madame la presidente de Montreuil. They offer insights into society, religion, morals, politics, and his fellow men - and women.

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 ...
