About this ebook
Marquis De Sade
The Marquis de Sade was a French aristocrat, revolutionary and writer of violent pornography. Incarcerated for 32 years of his life (in prisons and asylums), the majority of his output was written from behind bars. Famed for his graphic depiction of cruelty within classic titles such as ‘Crimes of Love’ and ‘One Hundred Days of Sodom’, de Sade's name was adopted as a clinical term for the sexual fetish known as ‘Sadism’.

Reviews for Les infortunes de la vertu
322 ratings7 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Read out of curiosity, I'm still pondering the writer's purpose. The vehicle of the abused, virtuous and foolish Justine seems to be merely to put forth his opinions on religion and philosophy of life. Mild by today's standards, this is a relic of its time.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Here we go! (Again. I quit the first time because some of this stuff is - spoiler alert - rather unpleasant.)
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5One can only imagine De Sade cackling madly as he penned this hilarious and maybe even unintentional send-up of the self-righteous whiner. Narrated by Justine, a selfish, perpetually-stupid, "virtuous" princess-type who is shocked to find out that her beloved God is not her own personal Santa Claus, the book is rife with rants on the place of vice over virtue - some of which actually make some good points.
Mostly loved it, tired of it before the lame ending. - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Very, very preachy. No good deed goes unpunished being the moral of the story. That she was given even a modicum of comfort at the end seemed to negate his entire premise. Way too wordy to be erotic and way too sadistic to be interesting. A very tiresome book.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I confess I am a fan of the Marquis de Sade but although I still admire the style presented here I couldn't connect with the content as much as his other work. An interesting concept but one that ultimately is flawed.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I did get confused over who was listening at what time and to whom. This is the story of a young orphan whose inheritance was lost. Although everyone keeps telling her to sell her body or to become a bad person as then the money will come, she is determined to live a pious life, ultimately meaning she has to suffer horrific sexual and physical abuse anyway.I do believe it is possible to live a happy life, whilst being 'good', without having to prostrate myself in front of every rich (and obviously evil) man or woman I come across, begging they listen to my story as I have no skills, and will not spend the time to learn any either. I just want your charity thank you.Interesting, but the young heroine is no heroine of mine.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I actually enjoyed this book. However it is not for the easily offended, or squeamish. Justine and Juliette are orphaned sisters. They were raised, in a rich family, to be good virtuous girls and had no skills. When orphaned at 12 and 15, with no money, the girls went their separate ways, Justine to be virtuous and seek people's kindness, and Juliette to 'surrender herself to libertinage'. This book is mostly about Justine's struggles trying to make her way through life where everything seems to be against her. There is a lot of sexual abuse, and rape and horrific sadism. Justine goes through a lot and just when you think her life is going to get better, misfortune awaits. The moral of the story is "that true happiness is to be found nowhere but in Virtue's womb, and that if, in keeping with designs it is not for us to fathom, God permits that it be persecuted on Earth, it is so that Virtue may be compensated by Heaven's most dazzling rewards."
