1993réf. 2351712London: Atlas Press 1993. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 5x0x8. Back corner lightly creased otherwise an excellent copy. Binding tight and square pages clean bright and unmarked. 1993 Trade Paperback. 116 pp. Translated into English from the original French by Paul Buck and Glenda George. Includes: The Castle of Communion; The Outrage Against Words. When Le Chateau de Cene here translated as The Castle of Communion first appeared in France in 1969 under the sonorous pseudonym of Urbain d'Orlhac it created a sensation. Immediately recognised as being among the finest works of French literary eroticism along with say Bataille's Story of the Eye or Reage's Story of O its author was soon identified: the poet and essayist Bernard Noel born in 1930. The author recounts an intense initiatory sexual quest which occurs on a mysterious remote island. Chosen as the moon's lover the hero undertakes a Dantesque voyage through sucessive levels of pain and ecstasy. The book's climax is a beatific rite of sexual purification in the Castle of Communion which is described in a poetic language at once incantatory crude and almost mystical. The intensity of the book matches its method of composition: dictated into a tape recorder and finished in only 3 weeks and written as a partial response to the atrocities of the French authorities in Algeria. This edition is postfaced by Noel's essay The Outrage Against Words his thoughts on the government's unsuccessful attempts through the courts to supress the novel for "outraging public morals." He illuminates the intimate connection between writing and censorship in general. Atlas Press paperback
