This Zone edition includes in a single volume a reconstruction, based on the versions published in Bataille's posthumous collected works, of his intended continuation of The Accursed Share.The three volumes of The Accursed Share address what Bataille sees as the paradox of utility: namely, if being useful means serving a further end, then the ultimate end of utility can only be uselessness. Volumes II and III explore the paradox from an anthropological and an ethical viewpoint.
