Thank you Pushkin Press and Netgalley for the ARC!
TWs: Incest, sexual content
Going into this book without knowing much about Marquis de Sade, it was an interesting way to explore his writing, the contents, and how he explored various concepts like morality, sexual desires, human nature, and philosophies.
The first story, Eugenie de Franval, was the longest of the eight short stories, about 40% of the book, followed by others of various stories. They explore similar concepts through 18th-century writing.
It was interesting to read this and then research about him afterward. I would suggest it, but please know that it can be triggering.

Truly a heartbreaking novel about a mother who loses her daughter and tries to figure out who the culprit is while navigating a world with her Parkinson disease. I really appreciated the Afterward at the end, solidifying the concept and meaning of the phrases, scenes, and characters in the story.
