Über diesen Titel

From the sumptuous private drawing rooms of 18th-century Paris to the decadent estates and chateaus of the French countryside, La Marquise de Merteuil and Le Vicomte de Valmont hatch a long-distance plan of vengeance and seduction.

Valmont is determined to conquer the famously pious Madame de Tourvel, whose husband is abroad on business. However, Merteuil has other plans. She enlists his involvement in the seduction of a young convent girl, Cécile Volanges, the wife-to-be of the Marquise's former lover. But as they race toward the culmination of their plans, events start to spiral out of control and they realise that they might not be as in control of their hearts as once they thought.

The story of "Les liaisons dangereuses" is originally from the late 18th century. It takes place in noblest part of the society and brings all their struggles with moral, social expectations, their own feelings and the willing of personal freedom to the readers.
In this audible book, there come two sides together: the actors of the theater play by Christopher Hampton in the version from 2016 and the texts from the original story.
So, the brilliant Janet McTeer and Dominic West read the antique texts - perfectly dealing with the finesse of the language, with an explosion of expressions and deeply understanding the subtext and complex idea of the story. So it is such a joy to listened to this book!

Tragedic story, brilliant speakers
