Baise-Moi is one of the most controversial French novels of recent years, a punk fantasy that takes female rage to its outer limits.
Drawing from the spiky cadences of the Sex Pistols and the murderous eroticism of Georges Bataille or Dennis Cooper, Baise-Moi is a shocking, accomplished, and truly unforgettable novel..
She teams up with Nadine, a nihilist who watches pornography incessantly, and they enact their own version of les vols et les viols (Rape and pillage) -- they lure men sexually, use them up, then rob and kill them.
Manu has been brutally raped, and determines it\'s not worth leaving anything precious lying vulnerable -- including her very self.
Manu and Nadine have had all they can take.
Now the basis for a hit underground film which was banned in France, Baise-Moi is a searing story of two women on a rampage that is part Thelma and Louise, part Viking conquest.
