Wow, I wish all literature was exactly like this book. To me, this felt more relatable than any other book I've read before.

Your opinion is wrong and since you're wrong about more than zero things you are also a liberal and redditor and low IQ and ugly. Somewhere in your post you made a word choice that revealed that you are a tranny. You should, and probably will, kill yourself.

I find Bataille's edginess a bit lame but he has extremely satisfying prose somehow. I dont know what exactly it is about it but it just reads so well.

I like Bataille but the only non-fic I've read from him was 'The Impossible' which I really enjoyed. What translation of SOTE did you read?

Probably would have killed myself if I hadn’t read Visions of Excess desu. Bataille is also exuberantly, perversely skilled in representing his philosophical ideas in his art

I really liked the Van Gogh essay. I wonder if that's how Akenaten felt about the sun too. We'll never know.

Isn't The Impossible fiction?--well, a combination of fiction, poetry, and essay anyway.
As for Story of the Eye, there's only one (English) translation that's widely available (the Neugroschel - though I believe there might be minor variants between US and UK versions; the first English translation was actually by Wainhouse [of Sade fame] for the Olympia Press, but that one's super rare - though pirate ebooks, including ones sold by something called the 'Olympia Press' were still going round in this century, though I'm not sure what version they are), right?

You're right, I meant fiction, my bad lmao. I'll check out the Neugroschel translation, thanks bro.

the scene with the girl target practicing in the toilet with cracked eggs had me laughing pretty hard till the dude sucks them out of the water. went from pure laughter to wanting to vomit multiple times in this book
