«Les infortunes de la vertu» is the moral tale by the Marquis de Sade, published by Distribooks Inc in paperback format (126 pages, in French).
Justine, a virtuous young woman, suffers a chain of misfortunes that contradict the idea that goodness is rewarded: every time she acts with virtue, fate punishes her. Sade inverts the conventional moral and shows a hypocritical society where vice thrives while innocence pays the consequences.
Written by Sade in 1787 in the Bastille, this tale is the germ of his novel Justine ou les Malheurs de la vertu, published in 1791.
Recommended for those interested in eighteenth-century French literature and philosophical narrative that questions conventional morality.
