Thresholds of Desire: Authority and Transgression in the Rougon-Macquart Book

Literally enjoyed reading this book, something that for me is a bit unusual, considering the fact that its a book about the understanding of a man about another man. To me, its a hard task, specially in the case of George Bataille. Or maybe I just haven't found good books like this one around. It's not perfect, but the impact it had on me was perfect. I still remember it and have some regard about it. The main thing about this book is, it doesn't try to make Georges Bataille a hero nor a loser, which is something that usually happens, specially when a man is known for being a little extreme. This book turns George Bataille against himself, exposing the things that are understood to be good and bad in his work and in a way in his personality(but its very non confrontational in this quality), and what good things we can isolate from both sides. Beautiful.
