Les Avariés is a 1901 play written by French playwright Eugène Brieux. Controversially, the play centred on the effect of syphilis on a marriage, at a time when sexually transmitted diseases were a taboo topic rarely openly discussed. An English translation by John Pollock under the title Damaged Goods was published in 1911 and staged in the United States and Britain, including a run on Broadway in 1913. It was later the subject of several film adaptations. Brieux dedicated the play to Jean Alfred Fournier, Europe's leading syphilologist.
