Title: The Misfortunes of Virtue - Donatien Alphonse François de Sade - book
Summary :
Angered by this first crime, the monsters did not stop there; they then stretched her out naked on her stomach on a large table, they lit candles, they placed the image of our savior at her head and dared to consume on the loins of this unfortunate woman the most formidable of our mysteries. I fainted at this horrible spectacle, it was impossible for me to bear it. "It is one of the greatest poetic virtues of this work to situate the painting of social iniquities and human perversions in the light of the phantasmagoria and terrors of childhood."
