These days de Sade is becoming more understood and many fans are coming out of the woodwork. It is said that much of what has been written of him has been written by his enemies who purpously made him a degenerate. Now, after reading some of this man's writing, its hard to believe that anyone had to make de Sade appear like a degenerate. I've read quite a bit and I can tell you it is not particularly "appetising". If you've read his work yourself, I think you might know what I am specifically referring to. But basically, his fans have said that his perverse behavior was limited to his writing, and of course all of his writing was done while in prison. You know, people can write nasty things and not be nasty themselves. And de Sade was very devoted to his wife, treated her very well and was petted by her in return. Remember all that chocolate she sent him? As well as other things? So I myself am coming to believe that perhaps he was not such a bad guy after all. Aside from his syphlis.
