Pierre Guyotats legendary novel of atrocious, obscenity, is a classic of modern French literature, taught at numerous universities and championed by an historical range of French and European authors, artists and politicians, including Mitterand and Pompidou. Set in a polluted and apocalyptic zone of the Algerian desert in a time of civil warfare, this delirious, lacerating novel brings scenes of brutal carnage into intimate collision with relentless acts of prostitutional sex and humiliation. Eden, Eden, Eden first came out in France in 1971 and was banned from being publicized or sold to under-18s. Pierre Guyotat has been reviled and revered in equal measure in his native France. Like Artaud, he views the act of writing as a physical secretion, a feral expectoration of deadly poisons which are remorselessly savage and interrogative in their visceral impact upon the reader. It is also one of the most intense and graphic accounts of queer sex ever written.
