Rating: 5
Summary: A WORK OF ART
Comment: This is, with no dout, one of the best books in the genre. It is decadent jet avant grade. If you like erotic literature and taboo this book is a must.

Rating: 5
Summary: A compelling addition to the discourse of sex and religion.
Comment: Before Foucault ruined the game, this was the cutting edge of theoretical musings on sex. Bataille's "continuity" concept of the erotic still seems fascinating (if not slightly intuitive), especially in the chapters on war and mysticism. Beware of the difficult language, but once this hurdle is cleared you're in for a delightful read.

Rating: 5
Summary: This book made me feel dizzy
Comment: This is one of the most amazing books I've ever read. Bataille contemplates humanity by means of erotism. He deals with love, sex, death and spirituality. He quests what makes human distinguished from other animals. He is vague sometimes, and leaps amazingly. Actually, I read the book in Korean, but I'd like to share the feeling with anyone who'd love to. If you liked this book, please write to me!
