Ilustration During Books Story of the Eye

Only Georges Bataille could write, of an eyeball removed from a corpse, that "the caress of the eye over the skin is so utterly, so extraordinarily gentle, and the sensation is so bizarre that it has something of a rooster's horrible crowing." Bataille has been called a "metaphysician of evil," specializing in blasphemy, profanation, and horror. Story of the Eye, written in 1928, is his best-known work; it is unashamedly surrealistic, both disgusting and fascinating, and packed with seemingly endless violations. It's something of an underground classic, rediscovered by each new generation. Most recently, the Icelandic pop singer Björk Guðdmundsdóttir cites Story of the Eye as a major inspiration: she made a music video that alludes to Bataille's erotic uses of eggs, and she plans to read an excerpt for an album. Warning: Story of the Eye is graphically sexual, and is only suited for adults who are not easily offended.

Column Epithetical Books Story of the Eye

The last orgy I attended was in Dundee. I turned up two minutes late, improperly dressed (my gimp mask hadnt been drycleaned in time), and offended the host by complimenting him on his lovely breasts, and even more cracking vagina. I was told to gently lube the testicles of a history teacher for the first rompclearly the host was furious with me, as the history teacher was my own fatherthen invited over for a little frottage against the pelvis of a divorced Cher impersonator. She sang Gypsies,

This may be a short read: a novella composed of only 103 pages of letters printed using big font. Definitely a short read. However, it is full-packed with explicit and sickening sex scenes so this is not for readers who are squeamish when it comes to sex. Also, this is not a book to titillate readers. The sex scenes are so disgusting I did not feel anything that made we want to have sex. Rather, the internal stirring I had while reading this came due to George Bataille's (1897-1962) deep

ADULTS ONLY! KIDS YOU STAY AWAY! take the sex act and strip away the burden of reality and what do you have?take two characters and make them fuck. you are the author and they are your puppets. they will do anything you want. does fucking equal life? can fucking be a form of transgression? so be it, make it so. add another character. a menage! subtract that character, the poor thing. have your characters fuck right next to her cold hanging corpse. they are fucking death! add another

So I finally read this. I don't really care about porn because porn is boring and utilitarian (and that utility is quite limited at that). Then why was I able to enjoy this? Because though it's pornographic, it's not really porn. Bataille uses that vocabulary to carry out something more ambitious and ambiguous. The sex acts here rarely involve intercourse, instead enumerating some elaborate convergent alchemy. Blood, milk, semen, eggs, and urine are gradually converted into the eye, the eye, the

Crazy, sick, juvenile, blasphemous, insane, refreshing, spontaneous, disgusting, a spit in the face of conservatism. At first I intended to write a proper review but then I realized how hard a task that would be, so humor me and pretend I adequately described it.

One of the most bizarre books I have ever read, The Story of the Eye kept me torn as I kept turning the pages. Torn whether to repulse or whether to admit excitement.This book was unlike anything I had read, vividly graphic and subtly gross, yet engaging and literary at the same time. Is it pornography? Undoubtedly yes, but it is also a romance, a dark, twisted, forbidden romance with an ending I could not imagine in my wildest dreams. Update 04/01/2016I just completed a second, more thorough

Georges Bataille is, in the world of literature, a special case: Nietzschean in the soul, blending blithely in his works sex and death, he is the one whom Jean-Paul Sartre declared "unfit for philosophy."A boy with 16 year old dating a girl named Simone whom he falls at first sight in love and together, they end quickly by engaging in very unusual sexual games. They then take in their incongruity a denominated Marcelle, a girl with convoluted discernment and therefore easily manipulable. At
