Set in the dirt of a +majestically tainted zone of the Algerian desert in a time of civil +warfare, Guyotat’s novel brings scenes of brutal violence into +intimate collision with relentless acts of prostitutional sex and +degradation. Eden Eden Eden was banned as “pornographic” by the +French Ministry of the interior on its publication and remained under +governmental censorship for eleven years. The book is a courageous +and unique exploration into the virulent matter of sex, language and +the human body. It is lethal, and it has no precedent. Guyotat has +declared: “The very origin of the whole system of literature has to +be attacked.” + +Guyotat is a reviled and revered figure in France. His books +have astonished and appalled their readership with their raw physical +power. He has been acclaimed as the only writer alive who is creating +a new language. He has said: “There is something inside me that +makes it necessary for me to go further, always further into +aberration.” + +Guyotat was born in 1940 in a remote mountainous region +of southern France. He has written obsessively from his first years. +As a child, he masturbated constantly while writing, and his first +manuscripts (as he narrates in his “seminal” text of the early 1970s, +The Language Of The Body) are extraordinary visual coagulations of +semen, ink, dirt and blood. As a teenager, he became a soldier in the +Algerian colonial war, and was arrested for inciting soldiers to desert +and kept imprisoned for three months in a hole in the ground. His +first celebrated book, Tomb For 500,000 Soldiers (also published by +Creation Books) is a hallucinatory account of the terror and ecstasy +Provoked by that genocidal war, the memory of which has been + +Eden Eden Eden ii +suppressed in France. Eden Eden Eden was written in an intense six +month period in a concrete highrise in the desolate suburbs of +southern Paris. + +Over the last twenty years, Guyotat has written incessantly +but has published only one novel, The Book. This astonishing work +compacts all the cruelty and exhilaration of Guyotat's early work into +a monstrous abjection of language, stripped to the infected bone, +viral and skeletal. The writing of The Book and his subsequent work, +The Story Of Samora Machel, almost killed Guyotat. At the end of +1981 he was living the creation of his language with such +obsessionality that he gave up eating, lost half his body weight and +was rushed to hospital and resuscitated from a coma that was almost +fatal. Since then, Guyotat has worked on preparing the manuscript of +Samora Machel for publication and begun an immense new work +which is now nearing completion, Progenitor. Every three or four +years, Guyotat gives a series of readings in the basement of the +Pompidou Centre in Paris — partly improvisations and partly a +delivery of raw work in progress, these performances leave their +audiences unforgettably scorched and lacerated by Guyotat's +language. He has also given readings at events around the work of +the only two writers whose vision in any way approaches the +extremity and the dissidence of his own: Antonin Artaud and Jean +Genet. + +Eden Eden Eden is a delirious and exhausting book to +experience: it propels its reader into itself with fury and adrenalized +elation. The hero of the book is a teenage Algerian prostitute boy, +Wazzag, who participates in a series of sex acts which constantly +escalate in scale, intensity and number. The book stinks of sperm +and killing. It is a malignant orgasm. It is the perfect book for +contemporary Europe. Guyotat's language is welded into a headlong +tush into the wild terrain of obscenity. He has commented: +“Pornography is certainly more beautiful than eroticism. | say three +cheers for pornography!” Like Antonin Artaud, Guyotat views the act +of writing as a physical secretion — a feral exudation of the body's + +Wv Pierre Guyotat +material, creatively expectorating deadly substances which are +savage and interrogative in their visceral impact upon the reader. +And like Artaud, Guyotat speaks with blunt and sensational desire, +against the bogus apparition of society and its paralysed languages. +The action of writing, in Eden Eden Eden, becomes a disciplined +intervention which cracks censorship wide open in all its horror. + +On the publication of Eden Eden Eden, Roland Barthes wrote +that Guyotat's book literally constituted a historical shock. The writer +Philippe Sollers said that nothing had been done that risked so much +since the novels of the Marquis de Sade. Pierre Guyotat has +relentlessly beaten the comatose, catatonic nature of language into +an anatomical matter of writing. Pierre Guyotat is the most original +writer alive, and this is his most livid, atrocious book. It will derange +you and it will scar you. + +—Stephen Barber, Paris 1994 + +Eden Eden Eden v +PREFACE + +Eden Eden Eden is a free text: free of all subjects, of all objects, of +all symbols, written in the space (the abyss or blind-spot) where the +traditional constituents of discourse (the one who speaks, the events +recounted, the way they are expressed) would be superfluous. The +primary consequence is that criticism, unable to discuss the author, +his subject, or his style, can find no way of taking hold of this text: +Guyotat's language must be “entered”, not by believing it, becoming +party to an illusion, participating in a fantasy, but by writing the +language with him in his place, signing it along with him. + +Getting in on the language, in the sense of “getting in on the +act”, is possible because Guyotat produces not a manner, a genre, a +literary object, but a new element (which might even be added to the +four Elements of cosmogony); this element is the phrase: substance +of speech with the qualities of a fine cloth or a foodstuff, a single +sentence which never ends, whose beauty comes not from it refers +to (the reality towards which it is supposed to point) but from its +breath, cut short, repeated, as if the author were trying to show us +not a series if imaginary scenes, but the scene of language, so that +the model of this new mimesis is no longer the adventure of some +hero, but the adventure of the signifier itself: what becomes of it. + +Eden Eden Eden constitutes (or ought to constitute) a sort +of eruption, a historical shock: the whole of an earlier evolution of +writing, seemingly double but coinciding in ways we can now see +More and more clearly, from Sade to Genet, from Mallarmé to Artaud, +is gathered up, displaced, purified of its historical circumstances: no +Story and no Sin (surely the same thing), we are left simply with +language and lust, not the former expressing the latter, but the two +bound together in a reciprocal metonymy, indissoluble. + +The strength of this metonymy, sovereign in Guyotat's text, +might presage a strong censure, which will find here its two favourite + +Eden Eden Eden vii +pastures, language and sex, united; but any such censure, which may +take many forms, will be unmasked by its own vehemence: +condemned to being excessive if it claims to censure simply the +subject and not the form, or vice versa: in either case condemned to +reveal its own essence as censorship. + +Yet whatever the institutional peripeteia, the publication of +this text is important: a whole body of critical and theoretical work +will be carried forward, without the text ever losing its power of +seduction: outside all categories and yet of an importance beyond +any doubt, a new landmark and a starting-point for new writing. + +—Roland Barthes + +vill Pierre Guyotat +Fi IZ Wess POF LI + +/ Soldiers, helmets cocked down, legs spread, trampling, muscles +drawn back, over new-born babes swaddled in scarlet, violet shawls +: babies falling from arms of women huddled on floors of G.M.C. +trucks ;
