Rendition In Pursuance Of Books The 120 Days of Sodom
The 120 Days of Sodom by Marquis de Sade relates the story of four wealthy men who enslave 24 mostly teenaged victims and sexually torture them while listening to stories told by old prostitutes. The book was written while Sade was imprisoned in the Bastille and the manuscript was lost during the storming of the Bastille. Sade wrote that he "wept tears of blood" over the manuscript's loss. Many consider this to be Sade crowning achievement.Rating Of Books The 120 Days of Sodom

What is this horrible, frightening, unreadable novel about? The End. The end of illusion, the end of hope, the end of confidence; the end of a century and its promises to mankind. Donatien de Sade has been called pornographer and philosopher, lunatic and intellectual, hero and criminal: Sade was much more than that. He was the spiritual offspring of a century, the 18th - the age of Enlightment and Darkness that began with the triumph of Reason and ended up with the apotheosis of Madness. AI am not a prude. I am not the type of person who will hesitate from delving into works others might find dark. One of my favorite novels is the Exorcist, commonly regarded as one of the most terrifying books ever written. I have pictures on the push-pin board in front of me while I write this containing images from Silent Hill, Audition, and other really gruesome stuff...of course, next to that I have pictures from It's a Wonderful Life and Aladdin, but that's not the point! Point is, I have no
I honestly don't know if I can finish this book. I was recommended this book after reading "American Psycho". I was looking for something that would feed my craving for a gore fest thriller. I don't know what this is. The first couple of pages left me questioning my sanity as to if I should finish it (a question that I thought would be a clear NO for someone who was mentally healthy). But I continued. I bought this book about a year ago and am still grappling with how gross and utterly
So, I wrote this upon finishing this book: "Ummmm. Give me a while to pull some thoughts together. This was definitely a book. I will not be rating it."That was mid-October. I don't think I've managed to pull those thoughts together. I don't think I ever will. I mean, I read some reviews going in to this book, but even the ones that were explicit about the contents didn't prepare me.I picked this book up because of the Read Harder Challenge. One of the challenges was to read a book that was
This book taught me that I am still capable of being offended.120 days of Sodom is the ultimate "boot-camp for the psyche" experience. Rating this monstrosity was extremely difficult for me because, although it was the most atrocious thing I've ever read in my life, it affected me significantly. It did not affect me in a satisfactory way, rather it affected me in the sense that I need to scrape my brain to rid myself of some of the imagery and ideas painted in this sacrilege. Ultimately, I
One cannot separate The 120 Days of Sodom from the biography of its author, the deranged aristocrat the Marquis de Sade, and the fascinating story of its authorship: hastily scrawled in tiny print onto a 12-metre scroll of paper over the course of 37 days, while the author was imprisoned in the Bastille, just before the French Revolution. These scrolls were presumed lost during the storming of the Bastille, only to be rediscovered and published for the first time in the 20th Century. The
Zelmire is an exceptionally beautiful name. Its a shame Id never be able to bestow it on my daughter for fear of her asking someday where I got the idea...
