Summary:
"Set against the backdrop of Europe's slide into Fascism, Blue of Noon is one of Bataille's most overtly political works, exploring the ambiguity of sex as a subversive force and dissecting the fetishes of violence, power and death that mesmerized an age. The reader is taken on a dark journey through the psyche of the pre-war French intelligentsia, torn between identification with the victims of history and the glamour of its victors."--BOOK JACKET.
Notes:
Originally published in the United States: [New York] : Urizen Books, 1978.
