Title: A fascinating and revealing book
Product review: Hayman does an excellent job of presenting the real de Sade. He reveals a gifted person whose attributions of sadism belong not to him but to the power structure of his day. Hayman writes of De Sade's struggle to prevail over his many unjust imprisonments with creative writing. This, with all else, is a much needed correction of the general misconcepton of the man and his life.
