Sade: North End
built 450 days ago
Sade adopts positions in the extreme. He intends to shock, but there was a gentle and idealistic side to him. You see where you stand when you read Sade. He puts the bottom to literature, the worst that could be written, the worst that could be imagined. It's good to know the enemy; knowing the bottom line of human nature is a very good sign of health at the end of this violent century.

Sade's tour heralds rebirth of the cool. Today's dime-a-dozen divas would be wise to take a lesson from Sade, an enduring pop-soul icon who beguiles and bewitches without resorting to vocal gymnastics, strip-club choreography or sequined lingerie.

At the end of the year, a warrant was out for Sade's arrest based on an infamous letter he had written two years earlier. In addition, he was ... wanted for suspicion of being an emigre (someone who had escaped from the country) by the Vaucluse. Although it was just a big mishap, Sade was arrested at his home on the rue Neuve-des-Mathurins and taken to Madelonnettes prison.
