Summary: French erotica of the XXth century.
Comment: Pierre Klossowski is one of the greatest modern french writers along with Georges Bataille. He's responsible for the rediscovery of figures such as Sade and Nietzche. He is the brother of the recently late painter Balthus. This book has two works, both of them part of a trilogy entitled Les lois de l'hospitalité (the rules or laws of hospitality) and they're concerned with sexuality and philosophy, libertine literature at its best. Roberte is the wife of Octave, a writer whose works are banned due to pornographic reasons by a group of the goverment of which Roberte is a member. The keeper of morals and the anti-moralist live in the same house, that's a good theme, a perverse one. This book may be a little hard to follow since not everybody is familiar with abstract thought (like me) but then again, art has its ways of getting through. I recomend it highly.
