About this ebook
Those who have read other works by the Marquis de Sade, particularly "The 120 Days of Sodom," and are aware of the vast scope he gives to the word libertinism, will find a Sade this time more sensual than perverse. And this is not a negative factor; on the contrary, the Marquis's writing surprises with its quality and beauty. However, promiscuity is present throughout the work. His critique remains constantly aimed at holy women, virgins, and institutions such as the clergy and marriage, which led to his works being censored even a century after their publication. In this complete edition of " Crimes of Love", the reader will find 14 stories that represent an excellent sample of the irreverent, provocative, and boundless Marquis de Sade.
About the author
Marquis de Sade (1740-1814) was a French libertine writer, playwright, and philosopher. His work was characterized by pornography and a disdain for the morals and institutions of his time. The name Sade gave rise to the term sadism, referring to the scenes of cruelty and torture described in his books.
