Dangerous Liaisons by Choderlos de Laclos

Dangerous Liaisons may be familiar to you from the popular 1988 film of the same name. It stars John Malcovich, Glenn Close, Michelle Pfeiffer, Peter Capaldi, Keanu Reeves, and Uma Thurman among others.

Another successful adaptation, Cruel Intentions, starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Reese Witherspoon, was released in 1999. However, as is always the case, the book is superior to the film!

Dangerous Liaisons is a story about extravagance and immorality among the French nobility. It takes place a few years before the French Revolution and is all about seduction and playing games to keep them entertained. Former lovers, the two main protagonists, choose naive, innocent prey and dare each other to seduce them. What begins as a game of manipulation ends with far more devastating implications than either party could have expected.
