Marquis De Sade
Justine, or the Misfortune of Virtue
Album US 1966 on Minta label
Spoken Word (Audiobook, Spoken Word, Dialogue)
The writings of The Marquis de Sade A NOTE ABOUT THIS RECORDING: The script for this recording is freely translated from the French, necessarily abridged heavily, but not expurgated; in fact this dramatic reading is more frank and modern in its presentation of the saga of Justine than many printed volumes claiming to be " complete. " Justine was recorded privately and read by a distinguished repertory company.

| No | Title | Artist | Composer | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Part I: In which Justine's misfortunes begin at the hands of Messrs. Dubourg and Harpin; she is unjustly imprisoned and rescued by Mme. Dubois only to discover the ways of libertinage at the hands of Coeur de Fer and his bandit tribe, and finally is assaulted in the forest by M. de St. Florent. | Marquis De Sade | 24:41 | |
| 2 | Part II: In which Justine, now known as Therese, is discovered in the forest by the pederastic Comte de Bressac, is falsely accused of murder and cruelly punished, and seeks refuge in the home of Doctor Rodin, keeper of a most unusual seminary, and father of Mlle. Rosalie. | Marquis De Sade | 23:40 | |
| 3 | Part III: In which Justine, still called Therese, is undeservedly branded as a thief and removed from the home of Doctor Rodin, and enters the service of the Comte de Gernande, where she becomes both victim and participant in his bloodthirsty rituals. | Marquis De Sade | 24:42 | |
| 4 | Part IV: In which Justine, as Therese, visits her former rapist Saint Florent; then while traveling alone she encounters Roland the master counterfeiter, who escorts her to his lonely chateau and subjects her to punishment of a breathtaking nature. | Marquis De Sade | 24:20 | |
| 5 | Part V: In which Justine, as Therese, suffers Roland's final assaults and narrowly escapes hanging as a counterfeiter; whereupon she encounters her former protector Mme. Dubois, foils the woman's criminal designs and barely avoids losing her head, only to find herself once more in prison. | Marquis De Sade | 21:17 | |
| 6 | Part VI: In which Justine is released from prison to spend an excruciating evening at the home of her judge, M. de Cardoville, is unjustly sentenced to hang and miraculously rescued, drops her alias of Therese, and enjoys a few months of happiness before her sudden but enlightening demise. | Marquis De Sade | 17:29 |
