The libertine philosophy of the notorious Marquis de Sade, one of the most infamous and hated men in all of history, gave birth to the classic story of Justine, or 'The Misfortunes of Virtue,' a tale replete with brutal tragedy befalling the seemingly cursed existence of a pure, chaste, and virtuous girl. The cynical Sade uses this immorality play to expound upon his philosophy of Darwinian struggle and nihilistic moral futility. His rakish, bawdy, and bizarre short 'histories' also give to the reader a taste of the venomous and troubled imaginings of this exceptional, deranged mind; while, revealing a comic and grotesque, even child-like side to the Divine Marquis that many may not have ever been aware of. A wonderful collection of his writings for those just beginning to explore this mad, controversial, and thoroughly brilliant man of letters. Published by Zem Books. 3
