# Aline et Valcour, ou Le Roman Philosophique. Tome 2

By marquis de Sade.

"Aline et Valcour, ou Le Roman Philosophique. Tome 2" by Marquis de Sade is an epistolary novel written between 1786-1789 and published in 1793. The story follows the virtuous love between Aline and Valcour, opposed by Aline's libertine father. Embedded within are adventure tales spanning southern Europe and Africa, contrasting two kingdoms: the brutal, cannibalistic Butua and the utopian island paradise of Tamoé. This philosophical work blends romance, travel narrative, and political commentary through letters and retrospective accounts. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
