Journal
Insightful reviews
Jesse: Even though I am only almost through with Juliette, I feel as though I have managed to
grasp the essence of the book already and can, therefore, give my thoughts on it. This is the
Sadeian novel at its most perfected. It is the Don Quixote of Sade's novels, in other words.
Now, with that stated, I would like to address some complaints I've seen other members
mention in regards to this book.
Is it boring? Well, it wasn't to me. Sade has never bored me. Some readers might, of course be
bored to tears by this huge novel but I don't think that a book (particularly Sade's novels) is by
nature boring. It all depends on whether or not the reader found the subject matter and general
tone of the novel interesting. Therefore, it is the reader who makes a text 'boring' not the text
alone. And I, as a reader, did not find any of this book's contents to be boring.
Is it repetitive? Sade's texts by their very nature are repetitive. Most of the scenes follow a
particular schematic: discourse, orgy, discourse, orgy, etc. Now, whereas many readers might
suggest that each discourse is merely a repetition of the others, I found each discourse to build
upon the last in much the same way that the orgies do. The orgies and discourses go a step
further each time until, finally, all hell breaks loose and the discourse becomes loftier in order to
justify more grotesque horrors.
Is it "disgusting, depraved, or evil"? I won't respond to this claim because whoever comes to this
conclusion is either, first of all, acting shocked in order to make themselves appear more
innocent or, second of all, reading a copy that doesn't mention the author's name or any
summary of the text on the cover because, after all, people expecting light-hearted romantic
romps don't pick up books by Sade.
Now, since I'm not qualified to go into a literary criticism of this work, I would suggest reading
"Sade: A Sudden Abyss" (covers the entirety of Sade's works) and "Writing the Orgy: Power
and Parody in Sade" (covers Juliette exclusively).
An absolutely stunning work. Maybe I'm weird but I was very satisfied with its tremendous
length and, even after 1200 pages, was sad to see it end.
Ivonne Torres: Siendo un libro muy fuerte, es uno de mis favoritos puesto que abarca temas
muy fuertes y los explica muy gráficamente, me agrada el hecho de que sea una lectura
diferente, donde la protagonista es mujer y no es buena, ni todo gira alrededor de ella en
circunstancias que no siempre son favorecedoras, en Julieta abarcan la vida del pecado, que
era su meta en la vida, usar su vida para basarse en el vicio, en el placer carnal a diferencia de
su hermana, realmente se requiere un buen criterio para verlo como lo que es una lectura y al
ser sadomasoquismo es obvio que tiene escenas muy fuertes y sobre todo pornográficas ,
pues este libro abarca Nada mas que realidades que muchas personas no quieren ver ni
aceptar, pero me gusta mucho el final y que la protagonista jamas le dio importancia a las
opiniones de los demás si no en su propio beneficio sin importar si lo que hacia estaba bien o
mal, su vida esta basada en el pecado y a pesar de todo es un libro pequeño y la manera de
escribir del autor es muy digerible y no utiliza palabras de más. En conclusión de
Los mejor que he leído.
Elyse: This was one of the most amazing books I've read. Whom did I give, (loan), my book to?
I'd take it back now! lol. When this book was first released... The country of France band it.
Jonesy: i began regretting no longer making extra of a spectacle out of the observation for this
book; I had desired to do extra Dracula: the Un-Dead sort observation to relieve my discomfort
incurred from examining this factor and developing whatever laugh helpful for posterity's sake.
at the start i presumed this was once because of laziness on my part, yet upon additional
reflection, i feel i've got came across the problem.Thee e-book isn't just bad, it really is repetitive
in its badness.Honestly, there is not a lot to assert past the subsequent pattern:1.) Ugh, an
overwrought and dull (albeit occasionally creative) intercourse scene that is both bodily
impossible/gory to the purpose of both being gag-worthy or so cartoonish it cannot faze an
upload kitten/replete with statements approximately how every one successive personality
possesses the main excellent ass/any mixture of the above. cannot wank to this because the
ebook is so heavy. That and i'm a sane human being.2.) Yawn, an overwrought and mistaken
argument that retains restating an analogous blatant contradictions and is rested on defective at
most sensible premises. Socrates' facts of the doctrine of recollection through assuming an
immortal soul and utilizing that end to end up the soul is immortal is commencing to glance
wonderful now.3.) Oh wow, the tale is now truly making me leave out the intercourse and the
philosophy. Kill me.4.) Rinse and repeat.5.)???6.)No profit.I imagine i'm right in pointing out that
this might were uninteresting as dishwater to submit with any awesome frequency. at the very
least Stoker and Holt got here up with anything that used to be creatively silly and left itself open
to various commentary, yet no longer here. The cherry at the best of the sundae is this went on
for nearly 1200 pages; not like the opposite volumes of this ilk, there aren't any articles by
means of different writers or different works of de Sade; the whole publication is not anything
yet a tremendous trollfic, whole with not less than one scene the place the plot stops for the
characters to study the books in a room and discuss what suggest poopie heads the
(presumably real)writers are and an overlong lifestyles tale of a unnecessary character.There
are infrequent bursts of madness through the complete factor which are inventive of their
personal way, however; at one point, a ridiculous and tousled albeit in a different way grounded
in truth ancient smut romp takes unsignaled left becomes delusion with scenes regarding giants
which are so good hung that the act of intercourse kills their associate and a sorceress who has
a potion that turns skeletons into good hung men.At one point, the protagonist, who in an prior
scene has been double penetrated through penises measuring approximately nine inches in
circumference and thirteen inches in size without problem, is gifted with a penis that's eight
inches in circumference and a foot in length; upon sight of this, she begins complaining that it's
so mammoth it is going to kill her. Let's put aside the not going measurements and the doubtful
notion of a lady with the ability to perform any such double penetration with no soreness inner
bleeding, let's even omit *everything* else flawed with this ebook and provides our sole
concentration to this little problem.*ahem*WHAT THE FRACKING
HELL???????????????!!!!!!!!!!!8 inches<9 inches.12 inches<13 inches.1 penis<2 penises.This
is simple arithmetic Kindergarten pupil can have done!*In no real way should still this damage
her, but one bumtupping(*) later her fundament(*) is bleeding as though she have been
attempting to shove a duplicate of the manuscript in there. regrettably for me, this truly didn't
happen, because the booklet used to be effectively published.The entire e-book keeps this way,
plodding in addition to no semblance of plot past the above indexed routine. Finally, because
the e-book drew to a close, I mirrored the way it could think to be freed from the author's
conceited footnotes telling the women to pay specific realization to this little bit of undesirable
argument, cite to alleged proof that experience no discoverable notation linking them to the
bibliography or giving web page references, or (no joke) indicating that the booklet initially
contained a recipe for a dangerous poison that has been edited out of this release, and it felt
sweet. i did not even permit my rage holiday on the consciousness that Justine's demise breaks
continuity with Justine, the book's sister novel. It used to be basically while i spotted that de
Sade's production used to be commencing to holiday the fourth wall within the final pages that I
felt panic set in, compelling me to fast end and slam the booklet close lest it reason a
dimensional rift to open and enable the madness spill forth into our world.All in all, this
publication sucks. i'm conscious that comparable difficulties have been current to a lesser
measure within the final 2 books I read, however the sheer significance of the undesirable stuff
this time round and the ponderous size of the booklet make it intolerable. don't learn for any
reason.*This isn't an endorsement to take advantage of the Marquis de Sade's Juliette as a
device for instructing math to an individual of any age, ethnicity, race, nationwide origin, creed,
orientation, or the other classification of self acutely aware entities i've got skipped over in my
sleep disadvantaged kingdom of mind. an individual who truly had to learn this to grasp that are
meant to do not forget that it really is down the street, now not around the road.**(*)Actual
language utilized by the author. whereas it could possibly were typical on the time, any feel of
steaminess which could were prompted by means of this language is killed by means of the
characters utilizing it in lengthy unbroken sentences indicating they're having tea instead of
nookie.**The author of this overview doesn't desire to force a person to suicide via this
comment. somebody who truly had to learn this to understand that are meant to ship an e mail

Ihsan: If this was once a greater novel it might be essentially the most infamous books ever
written. as a substitute its writer is infamous whereas his ebook is little-read.The Marquis de
Sade proven powers of characterization and narrative in a few his different works, yet "Juliette"
is a 1200-page slab of pornographic myth with philosophic pretensions. Like so much wank
fodder it truly is insanely repetitive: Juliette meets somebody who stocks her specified tastes;
this determine supplies an never-ending lecture of self-justification dressed up as philosophy;
they've got an orgy in which many disposable companions are raped, tortured, killed. Then the
cycle restarts repeatedly again. The violence of the orgies builds, yet they are repeated so
forever (alongside their prefatory lectures) that the reader is desensitized. If the booklet have
been merely three hundred pages long, it will have the focused energy of snake venom.
"Juliette" even fails as pornography—-de Sade is extra drawn to describing sexual positions,
through interminably distinct tableaux, than in describing the sensations of sex. yet readers gets
good enough philosophical justification for the acts of sexual violence. De Sade’s simple
philosophy is “I’m an asshole and that i could be allowed to do no matter what I want.” Why?
simply because such impulses are encouraged through Nature--and Nature even approves of
murder, since it frees up area for brand new beings! regardless of being a devoted atheist
(many of his arguments are stolen from Baron D’Holbach), de Sade makes a Goddess out of
Nature—-she ceaselessly “desires” no matter what crime he sounds like committing. what's
more, mankind is said to were initially solitary--a scientifically fake suggestion derived from
Rousseau. Like precise sociopaths, de Sade's characters brush aside empathy and altruism as
mere expressions of self-interest. How chagrined he will be to understand the softer feelings he
despised have been shared by means of dolphins, elephants, chimpanzees, and different highlyintelligent Social animals! Such emotions and sociability are solely natural, while de Sade’s
characters are freaks, and their creator's view of nature is bunk. De Sade wishes nature’s
backing to justify writing outrageous acts of cruelty, created from tortures that may make a focus
camp attendant proud. The booklet is in love with the assumption of an egoistic self that makes
use of others in any respect it likes and destroys them to gratify its power. accordingly the literal
disposability of Juliette’s sex-victims—-thousands die to offer her orgasms. None of her sufferers
ever imagine to struggle again or withstand their sexual degradation and destruction--that might
destroy the fable up to giving the reader an opportunity to get to grasp Juliette's victims.If this is
often this sort of failure of a novel, why do I provide it 3 stars instead of none? simply because
de Sade writes with such evil energy; simply because his mind's eye is so fertile is devising the
worst for mankind; simply because he is going to such Olympian lengths to invert the ethical
values of western civilization, whether his philosophy is eventually spurious. Spend adequate
time with this publication and you'll suppose de Sade engaged on your brain, bold you to
indulge your worst self. De Sade used to be merely too convincing in exhibiting the take
pleasure in making different suffer. in a single of 1000's of sexual tortures, Juliette nibbles a
boy’s penis until eventually it’s virtually severed. "Where did I learn this before?" I thought,
prior to remembering it used to be from an account of the mass-murder spree of Dean Corll and
his accomplices, who sexually tortured and murdered approximately 30 teenaged boys within
the 1970s--all for purposes as in basic terms sadistic as de Sade’s. I shuddered at figuring out
the kinship in mentality. "Juliette" presages the atrocities of our personal age; it nonetheless
shocks and haunts. a last note: the translation, via Austryn Wainhouse, is adept yet irritating. He
overuses fustian expressions like “‘tis” and has obnoxious tics like regularly pertaining to
semen as “fuck” or utilizing pointlessly recondite phrases like “bardash” and “fustigate.”
Ricardo Acuña: Comencé a leer este libro cuando estaba en clase de Psicología viendo el tema
de las perversiones sexuales. Sin embargo conforme lo fui avanzando poco a poco, (lo leí por
espacio de mas de un año), me di cuenta que a parte de retratar muy bien el placer por los
angeles violencia y el crimen mezclado con el sexo, Sade expone en una especie de "filosofía"
como el le llama, relatada por sus personajes, l. a. justificación de los angeles violencia y el
crimen que se haya presente en toda los angeles "naturaleza", los animales y el hombre. Los
pasajes eróticos y perversos que abundan en l. a. novela son bastante explícitos y que pueden
llenar todo un catálogo de perversiones sexuales sádicas, me resultaron muy interesantes y de
una imaginación asombrosa. Sin embargo me encantaron aún mas los pasajes "filosóficos" que
se dan en las conversaciones que tiene Juliette con diferentes personajes, que sirven mas bien
como un medio en el cual Sade hace una exposición de sus rules sobre porque es mejor el
vicio (crimen, violencia) sobre las virtudes, arremetiendo en gran medida contra l. a. iglesia y
los angeles religión. Abundan los libros y autores que hablan sobre el aspecto "bueno" y
"virtuoso" del ser humano. Pocos hablan de los contrario. Sin embargo los angeles realidad nos
muestra una dualidad donde coexisten virtud y vicio, y que en muchas ocasiones parece que el
vicio, vence a l. a. virtud. Me parece que lo importante de este libro y de las principles de Sade,
es que nos enfrenta de una manera muy cruda y a veces no muy agradable, al "principio de
realidad". Sin embargo muchos de los relatos de Sade, son superados en los angeles realidad
por los hechos que ocurren en muchas partes todos los días y que llenan de casos a hospitales
psiquiátricos, hospitales, departamentos de policía con delincuentes, violadores, sádicos,
pederastas, psicópatas, etc.Muy recomendable este libro, controvertido al mismo tiempo que
interesante, pero que puede resultar desagradable, si no se se está listo para ello.
