The 120 Days of Sodom is an erotic novel by the Marquis de Sade, published in 1785. The work describes the extreme and depraved sexual practices of four libertines who isolate themselves in a castle to carry out their darkest fantasies for 120 days. The novel is an exploration of human nature, power, morality, and the limits of pleasure, and has been the subject of controversy and debate since its publication. This edition by Tusquets Editores, belonging to the La Sonrisa Vertical collection, presents the translation by Joaquín Jordá and offers an introduction to Sade's transgressive and provocative world.
Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade was a French writer, libertine, political activist, and nobleman best known for his libertine novels and imprisonment for sex crimes, blasphemy, and pornography. His works include novels, short stories, plays, dialogues, and political tracts. Some of these were published under his own name during his lifetime, but most appeared anonymously or posthumously.
