Fascinating work by the Marquis, who wrote the first draft while whiling away his days in the Bastille. Abandoned to fate with her sister Juliette, Justine attempts to do all the right things in life. She takes up with a stranger who offers to help out. But then the doors close, Justine’s trapped, and life gets very interesting. First published in 1953 by the Olympia Press.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful, Engaging, Amazing...,
By Aryael de Kaprii (California, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Justine (Paperback)
This story is fantastic. I don't have this exact product, I have a collected works of the Marquis De Sade which includes this story. The mess that Justine went thru was intense. This book will grab your heart and squeeze until you are so pissed off that you wanna reach into the book and choke the hell outa someone. Warning, this book could be offensive to Catholics, since the villain is the Catholic Church Priests, and Clergy, etc etc. The language is non-conventional, be for warned if you are not accustom to 17th century Literature, you might wanna test it out first. Now this IS the Marquis De Sade, his perversion got him locked up, so don't be surprised when you read about the sexual brutality, rape, murder, violence in total, etc...
