Eighteenth-century France. Young Cecile is taken from a convent by her mother to be married off. And a couple of exquisitely depraved scoundrels - the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont - do everything to realize their insidious plans. Ruin a young girl's life by upsetting her wedding. Corrupt a married god-fearing lady, demonstrating knowledge of all the peculiarities and subtleties of seduction.

A veritable school for the conquest of hearts. The author in the preface quotes one mother's opinion of the book: "I would think I would be doing my daughter a favor if I gave it to her to read on the day of her marriage."

"Dangerous Liaisons," a novel published in 1782 in Paris, became the most read and most discussed-scandalous. This masterpiece of world literature has not lost its poignancy even now.
