A short, somewhat overwrought account of two brothers--Charles the libertine, and Robert the priest, and the woman (Eponine) who comes between them. Bataille was a strange figure in the French art and literature movement, and L'Abbe C is complete with a homoerotic tension between the twin brothers, and an underlying theme that sometimes those who are the most pristine externally harbor the most twisted perversions internally. This novella, although published in 1950, treats many of the themes that have been discussed in the last two decades, that of the effect of the Catholic Priesthood on the repressed sexuality of its men.
