Amazon.com
Only Georges Bataille could write, of an eyeball removed from a corpse, that "the caress of the eye over the skin is so utterly, so extraordinarily gentle, and the sensation is so bizarre that it has something of a rooster's horrible crowing." Bataille has been called a "metaphysician of evil," specializing in blasphemy, profanation, and horror. Story of the Eye, written in 1928, is his best-known work; it is unashamedly surrealistic, both disgusting and fascinating, and packed with seemingly endless violations. It's something of an underground classic, rediscovered by each new generation. Most recently, the Icelandic pop singer Björk Guðdmundsdóttir cites Story of the Eye as a major inspiration: she made a music video that alludes to Bataille's erotic uses of eggs, and she plans to read an excerpt for an album. Warning: Story of the Eye is graphically sexual, and is only for adults who are not easily offended.
Der Autor über sein Buch
Basically, a shallow little moan.
I have a twittering fizzing sensation building in my ears. PLug in, touch keys, flicker, flicker. Words unreadable, unspeakable (don't speak them, breath into them, give them banal life!) divulged on this surface of a wirring surface...They hav'nt a beginning or end, flocks of letters and font in rzizomatic hoards , simply drifting to and fro. I send them migrating south where they'll sail and overshoot the mark, rushing on overhead...not honing birds, graceful, seeking. They have an impossible etiology. Quite frankly, and without gilded tongue, the internet has gone some way towards disproving the theory that an infinite number of apes, typing for an given amount of time, on a given number of type-writers (simian compatable, of course), will some day produce the works of Shakespeare, Melville, Pynchon, Myself. Smash this screen, go outside, and shout at an object. An object.

Format:Taschenbuch
"The Story of the Eye" is a surprisingly well-written pornographic novella about the sexual awakening of three French teenagers and the extremes to which they go to explore and fulfill their fantasies. The central theme of the book is desire: how desire often manifests itself in eccentric and perverse ways, how desire for certain objects or acts have associational roots in childhood experiences that we cannot now recall and therefore remain unconscious, how desire is frequently repressed by society with sometimes tragic consequences. The book, as many here have noted, is at times shocking, but I would say a fairer characterization of it is as colorful and daring. Read it expecting to be startled or even upset by some of the events that take place, and it probably won't have any more harmful effect on you than, say, a Surrealist film by Salvador Dali such as "Un Chien Andalou" or a graphic sexual painting by Marcel Duchamps. Furthermore, the closing section of the book goes a long way toward putting the events that have been recounted in context and "bringing you down" back to reality after the horrifying, though highly stylized and symbolic, scene in the next-to-last chapter. Take the book with a grain of salt, and then dive in and try to enjoy it.

Dieses Buch mag einige Leute schockieren , jedoch erfährt man nachdem man sich bis zum Nachwort durchgeschlagen hat, dass alles in diesem doch teilweise sehr perversen Buch einen tieferen Sinn in sich birgt. Daher wäre es vielleicht zu empfehlen, sich das Nachwort vorher einmal durchzulesen, um das Buch später nicht als billige Pornolektüre zu beschimpfen. Wer diesen Punkt beim Lesen berücksichtigt, erfährt auf diese Weise interessante Eindrücke aus der sehr traurigen Vergangenheit Batailles. Dennoch ist dieses Buch recht harter Tobak und nichts für zartbeseitete Seelen.

Georges Bataille often falls between the cracks of literary identificaton because his work straddles so many uncomfortable realms. A sometime-Surrealist who had a falling out with Andre Breton, Bataille's books are often compared to the Marquis de Sade's. Reading "Story of the Eye" it's not hard to see why: two teenage lovers experiment with their bodies and with foreign objects; eventually their erotic adventures include madness, torture, murder and the death of a bullfighter.
This is strange, heady stuff--fortunately the book is barely 100 pages long. This is underground literature at its finest, mocking the pretensions of culture, of decency, morality, and healthy sexuality. Bataille's style can be obtuse but can also illuminate dark, forbidden corners of humanity. If you're into de Sade, Wm. Burroughs, Surrealism, Clive Barker, the psychology of fetishism, or just want something to read that is light years from the crappy bestseller lists, read "The Story of the Eye" and introduce yourself to the unholy world of Georges Bataille.

just trying to make a buck
Story of the Eye was a real let down. Why did he write it? I guess he was just starting out and needed to make the money to write his great works - I don't know. Lesen Sie weiter...

Porn as art? Why not?
If you take this book, open it to a random page and read a random paragraph, you'll get some sort of twisted sexual image every time (I actually did this with a group of friends... Lesen Sie weiter...

an amazing piece of literature
Although my own personality can best be described as one of near-Victorian prudery, I was awed by the literary skill displayed in this volume. Lesen Sie weiter...

How can anyone like this book?
This book has no artistic value whatsoever. You may as well buy a porn magazine. Even if you can get past all the disgusting sexual details, there is no substance to the story. Lesen Sie weiter...

Bataille was a visionary and a hero.
This book is not only the Story of The Eye, it is also in a way the story of us all. Bataille, the apostle of defilement, offers us all that is the converse of contemporary... Lesen Sie weiter...

brilliant
Batille's "Story of the Eye" is a brilliantly distrubing tale of a twisted coming of age.
a quick read, and a must read.
