1 Betrayal Marquis de Sade, John Burnside, Translated by Andrew Brown

The Baron de Teroze has already successfully married off his eldest daughter to a colonel of the dragoons; now it is time for him to arrange his younger daughter's nuptials. A corrupt magistrate from Aix seems to him the ideal candidate much to the disgust of the young Mademoiselle de Teroze who is in love with another man. Vowing to rid the beautiful marchioness of her odious old husband her lover sister and brother-in-law conspire in a series of hilarious manipulations that ultimately results in complete humiliation and defeat for their hapless guest. As a companion piece to The Mystified Magistrate Emilie de Tourville tells the chilling story of another unfortunate younger sister whose elder lawyer brothers exact revenge on her for compromising their family's honour. Two of the Marquis de Sade's most elegant tales of love and deception these pieces offer a scandalous glimpse into his society's hidden proclivities and a shocking indictment on the rising bourgeoisie.

2 Enter The Queen Marquis de Sade
Interactive Press 1921479388 / 9781921479380 Paperback New 
ENTER THE QUEEN is an extraordinary journey into the psyche of a self-titled queen, as she moves from immersion in the physical world towards redemption. While certain to stir controversy due to its inclusion of masochistic/sadistic material, this translation of the Marquise de Sade's original story has been updated for a contemporary audience and the story is artfully handled. In the tradition followed by Anais Nin and Georges Bataille, the emphasis is on eroticism rather than pornography. Not recommended for a young audience due to its graphic sexual content.

3 Ghosts Of Sodom Marquis de Sade
Creation 1840681012 / 9781840681017 Paperback New 
"The Ghosts of Sodom "offers a unique insight into the workings of the mind of this aristocratic sadist and literary revolutionary. Sade was 67 years old when he wrote this journal (one in a series of four, two of which have yet to be rediscovered) during his seven years spent at the "hospital-prison." The journal reveals how his days were slow and grim, full of everyday preoccupations, worries about money, nasty quarrels with the people around him-but were also lit up by a final erotic adventure: the last flames of his senile passion. At the Charenton asylum, Sade's death approached, darkening the colors of his life and tearing apart his feelings.

6 Misfortunes Of Virtue And Other Early Tales Marquis de Sade, David Coward (Translator)
Oxford University Press 019954042X / 9780199540426 Paperback New 
The name of the Marquis de Sade is synonymous with the blackest corners of the human soul, a byword for all that is foulest in human conduct. In his bleak, claustrophobic universe, there is no God, no morality, no human affection, and no hope. Power is given to the strong, and the strong are murderers, torturers, and tyrants. No quarter is given; compassion is the virtue of the weak. Yet Sade was a man of savage intelligence who carried the philosophy of the French Enlightenment to its logical extreme. His writings effectively release the individual from all social and moral constraint: for many, Sade is the Great Libertarian. The Victorians considered him 'Divine' and Apollinaire called him 'the freest spirit'; the Surrealists recognised him as a founding father, and he is a key figure in the history of modernism and post-modernism. With Freud and Marx, Sade has been one of the crucial shaping influences on this century, and reactions to him continue to be extreme. But he has always been more talked about than read. This selection of his early writings, some making their first appearance in this new translation, reveals the full range of Sade's sobering moods and considerable talents.
