De Sade's Justine is a better book. The "Dialogue between a priest and a dying man " is interesting. 120 Days of Sodom was lost in manuscript when the Bastille was stormed. Sade was moved out a day before. What we have now are note that he tried to recreate and not the finished work. Bit harsh to damn his work based upon that.
30 years ago, I read the complete works of Sade. Well, I was a student and it was more interesting than reading law books. I also saw Salo at that time just after having a cream tea at the original Patisserie Valerie in Old Compton Street.
