The Marquise de Gange
de Sade, The Marquis / McMorran, Will![The Marquise de Gange](https://support.digitalhusky.com/media/annotations/sorted/359/35929581/CHSBZCOP0335929581.jpg)
Loosely based on one of the most notorious crimes of the seventeenth century, The Marquise de Gange by The Marquis de Sade is a neglected classic. Although a departure from his earlier pornographic and libertine works, the novel reads with the same subversive tension of an author plotting against virtue in his distress.
