Justine, ou, Les malheurs de la vertu
La prospérité du crime est comme la foudre, dont tous les feux trompeurs n'embellissent un instant l'atmosphère, que pour précipiter dans les abîmes de la mort, le malheureux qu'ils ont ébloui. Le dessein de ce roman (pas si roman que l'on croirant) est nouveau sans doute ; l'ascendant de la vertu sur le vice, la récompense du bien, la punition du mal, voilà la marche ordinaire de tous les ouvrages de cet espèce ; ne devrait-on pas en être rebattu.

Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade was a French aristocrat and writer famous for his libertine sexuality and lifestyle. His works include novels, short stories, plays, and political tracts; in his lifetime some were published under his own name, while others appeared anonymously and Sade denied being their author. He is best known for his erotic novels, which combined philosophical discourse with pornography, depicting bizarre sexual fantasies with an emphasis on violence, criminality, and blasphemy against the Catholic Church. He was a proponent of extreme freedom, unrestrained by morality, religion or law. Sade was incarcerated in various prisons and in an insane asylum for about 32 years of his life; eleven years in Paris (10 of which were spent in the Bastille) a month in Conciergerie, two years in a fortress, a year in Madelonnettes, three years in Bicêtre, a year in Sainte-Pélagie, and 13 years in the Charenton asylum. Many of his works were written in prison. The term "sadism" is derived from his name. ([Source][1]) [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquis_de_Sade
