Synopsis of The Blue Sky:

Throughout the publication, in La sonrisa vertical, of three titles of Georges Bataille, ahora le toca el turno a otro classico de la literatura erótica. Battle written in the blue sky in 1935, however, we confided in the preface, we heard of it for a long time. La war en España y las catástrofes que la humanidad tuvo qu’oportar duringe treinta años, creía, vaciaban de contenido la obra. However, in 1957, thanks to the advice of one of our friends, the great French writer decided to enter the public eye of JJ Pauvert, his editor in France.

Weighing the luminosity of the title, this object was inspired by the transgression of a prudent morality, into a peligrosa mission: the learning of death, the “impossible” profundity of this blue sky that our atrae y repele al mismo tiempo. London, Paris, Barcelona, ​​dibujan a topografía de la perdition, un marco en el Troppman, a través de borracheras, noches en blanco et extrañas celebraciones, se va cercando hacia esa nueva forma de pureza, la communion con la mort gracias al descubrimiento illuminador de l'ordido.

We can say that in the blue sky it is presented to all Bataille, all the themes that concern the length of his life: the ideologies, the death, the states of ecstasy, the sex… Ahora hace three years that we have published to Georges Bataille. Hasta la fecha son seis las obras que, en distintas colecciones, han visto la luz: El verdadero Barba Azul (Infimos 35), El erotismo (Marginales 61), Historia del ojo, Mi madre, Madame Edwarda seguido de El muerto (La sonrisa vertical 10, 19 y 25) y Las lágrimas de Eros (Los 5 sentidos 12).
