The Torture Garden, written by Octave Mirbeau in 1899, deals with the Chinese idea that torture is a refined art form. A dissolute bureaucrat is led, by an extraordinary woman, into the depths of depravity. As a critique of society, The Torture Garden is an enduring inspiration. Obliged to feign respect for people and institutions you think absurd, you live attached to moral and social conventions you despise. These contradiction makes you sad, troubled and lose all joy of life.
