Erotism: Death and Sensuality by Georges Bataille
3.0

bataille has some interesting ideas about the nature of eroticism- namely that erotic excitement derives from the intentional transgression of established taboos- but to be completely honest a lot of it is couched in so much philosophy speak that its mostly incomprehensible. it definitely doesnt help that this is a translation from french. that said, what i was able to parse was interesting if not exactly riveting.
