La vie sexuelle de Catherine M

<慾望.巴黎──凱薩琳的性愛自傳>La vie sexuelle de Catherine M 我讀過這本書的英文和中文版,文字同樣累贅和迂迴;除了歸咎於難以翻譯的法文外,也可能因為作者喜用藝術分析的詞彙,來描寫她二三十年前的性愛冒險.通常,回憶總會帶有情感的溫暖色彩,但這本法國著名藝術評論家的性愛自傳,仿佛處處在提醒讀者,性就是她的追求目的,而不是愛,甚至不是慾望.除了令人大開眼界的性愛描寫外,最特別的是作者那種冷峻得近乎無情的的態度.網上有人寫:Written in cold, repetitive prose, clinical by virtue of its attempt at objectivity, it is above all sexual self-analysis, the singular story of one femininity seeking neither seduction nor even pleasure but simply encounters with other bodies.

那究竟,她孜孜追求的是甚麼?或者,這本書像一本運動員自傳--追求更快,更高,更遠,更強....
