Who but the Marquis de Sade would write not of the pain, tragedy, and joy of love but of its crimes? Murder, seduction, and incest are among the cruel rewards for selfless love in his stories--tragedy, despair, and death the inevitable outcome. Sade's villains will stop at nothing to satisfy their depraved passions, and they in turn suffer under the thrall of love.This is the most complete selection from the Marquis de Sade's four-volume collection of short stories, The Crimes of Love. David Coward's vibrant new translation captures the verve of the original, and his introduction and notes describe Sade's notorious career. This new selection includes "An Essay on Novels," Sade's penetrating survey of the novelist's art. It also contains the preface to the collection and an important statement of Sade's concept of fiction and one of the few literary manifestoes published during the Revolution. Appendices include the denunciatory review of the collection that it received on publication, and Diderot's vigorous response. A skilled and artful story-teller, Marquis de Sade's is also an intellectual who asks questions about society, about ourselves, and about life. Psychologically astute and defiantly unconventional, these stories show Sade at his best.

Lower Quality than Competitors
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
Construction is different from the Wall I brought from Children's Factory. Would recommend going there for a higher quality product and to save some money.

Well made… for children?
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
This review is for the 30” tall one.
I’m honestly struggling to find a great use case for how short this is.
I don’t have children or am associated with any institution where they may be some.
I could see it being used for creating that type of sound barrier.
The panel itself is very well made. Looks and feels like an air wall that you’d see in a convention center.
I can absolutely tell there’s an acoustic absorption property to it.
The whole thing unrolls quickly and is fast to deploy.
As far as privacy goes, it’s kind of useless unless you are trying to wall in small children.
I can’t really say the value is all here for this. Seems quite a bit more expensive than it’s worth.

Very pleased
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
This works great, and I find it to be very effective at soundproofing. The hinge is good quality, and it rolls up easily. It is slightly on the heavier side, but that is to be expected considering its larger size. The materials used to make it are top quality, and it will last a long time.
