Seems to apologize more for the subject matter than to truly explore it. Quite interesting, yet didn't seem to go deep enough for a full exploration.

A very interesting introduction to Marquis de Sade.
One of the final chapters, the one that speaks about women & the anima, is very tangential & seems to come from a place of emotion & personal feeling rather than research & critical thinking. This chapter detracted from the rest of the book, considering how thoughtful most other chapters are. This chapter seemed to have little editing, & presents scarily harmful ideas.
The rest if the book was a very fun, interesting read.
