I had to read this book for an art class. It's... interesting, (and very very NSFW). It's essentially about the tale of a teenage couple discovering and experimenting with sex. Lots. And it's very detailed, with lots of pissing and eroticism and some gore. Note that Bataille wrote it in 1928, originally. If you want to give it a read, here's a link.

What the fuck is this?
For some reason, I was expecting something tasteful, but I've read erotic StarFox fanfic that gives sex a more artistic treatment than this garbage.

What's tasteful about a girl pissing in the eye of her friend's corpse while her male companion masturbates?

I agree with Suki. It's not so much the fact that it's erotica, it's that it's incredibly bad erotica. It really does read like a 14 year old girl wrote it. The sections that I've read of My Immortal are only slightly more horrible than this.

Of course, after reading Story of the Eye, we watch a Japanese movie directed by Takashi Miike called "Visitor Q"
It's pretty fucked up. Read about it here if you so desire. I'd post the cover but it's NSFW.

Oh my fucking God, I can't fathom anything that anyone could possibly care about less, ever.
