Sex-Pol = Freud plus Marx. This book is composed in the spirit of heretical paintings such as Throwing Back the Apple and The Good News of Original Sin. It operates under the twin signs of Wilhelm Reich's Sex-Pol Essays and the scurrilous French cartoons in Charlie-Hebdo. You will find full length studies of Marvell, Rousseau, Lawrence and Bataille; substantial dossiers on Cinema, Censorship, Mysticism, Literary Theory, Anais Nin, Bakhtin and Mayakovsky; close attention to works as diverse as The Coy Mistress, The Cromwell Ode, Women in Love, Story of the Eye and The Piano Teacher; and as a bonus some sparkling reviews of Robbe-Grillet films by Malcolm Watson. Sex and politics meet in heady brew. Works of film and literature are subject to the scrutiny of Marxist, Formalist and Feminist approaches. It's all serious fun.
