Dangerous Connections V1-V2: A Series Of Letters, Selected From The Correspondence Of A Private Circle And Published For The Instruction Of Society (1812) is a novel by French author Choderlos De Laclos. The book is a collection of letters exchanged between various characters, detailing their manipulations, affairs, and scandals in high society. The plot revolves around the seduction of a virtuous woman named Madame de Tourvel by the conniving Vicomte de Valmont, who is also involved in a game of seduction and revenge with the Marquise de Merteuil. The novel is considered a masterpiece of French literature and a prime example of the epistolary novel genre. It explores themes of morality, power, and gender relations in the context of 18th-century French society. The book was controversial at the time of its publication due to its explicit content and was banned in some countries. However, it has since become a classic and has been adapted into various stage productions, films, and television series.In Four Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
