A Wicked Company (2010) by German historian Philipp Blom traces the roots of the French Enlightenment, taking Baron d'Holbach as its protagonist.
It is as much about the wives of the French Enlightenment (Sophie d'Houdetot, Louise d'Épinay and Sophie Volland) as D'Holbach's Coterie.
It pays lots of attention the sexual lives of the intellectual heirs of Descartes, Spinoza and Pierre Bayle.
