Bloomsbury Rooms: Modernism, Subculture, and Domesticity
I rather read the actual books by Bataille but still Denis Hollier nails him down as a 20th Century master, and I don't disagree with that at all. But it's wise to read Bataille's books as well as the critique -he's a multi-layered talent that needs to be studied and examined.
