unconditional eroticism and the will to power
mohammed shahid and i shared the human societal attraction to unconditional eroticism and the will to power but i'm glad our folies a deux remained works of pornographic imagination
i finally caught up with Gordon Burn's "Happy Like Murderers" about fred and rosemary west. the account paints him as the evil sun reader always talking of people being "starkers". they murdered some of their own children and the rituals they evolved were both complex and kitch. fred blabbed after he was caught and hanged himself in jail where rosemary continues her silence
ian brady in "The Gates Of Janus" quotes the psychologist Henry James, "Experience is never limited, and it is never complete; it is an immense sensibility, a kind of huge spiderweb of the finest silken threads suspended in the chamber of conciousness." it was not until i scanned it that i saw the face in the cover. spooky
in "Beyond Belief" emlyn williams states that nothing that is humanly possible is unworthy of our study. brady's head was turned by de sade and after he and myra hindley were caught they remained silent about their crimes
hindley has died and brady has been on hunger strike since 1999 but the authotrities can continue to keep him alive by force feeding because he is considered insane
