Bataille Reader
This is the first book where I really started to "get" Bataille (which isn't to say that I never understood him before-though there's some truth to that-but to say that things started to click a nd I began to feel that revulsion of which so many speak). The arrangement and categorization of texts was done in a way where there seemed to be some sort of fluidity or conversation between independently published or written pieces.
The biggest downsides are that about half the pieces are from The Accursed Share, which left me wanting more, and I felt like some of the pieces could have used some sort of commentary to better locate them within Bataille's thought.
