Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. 136 pages, reproductions de quelques photographies et documents. Quatrième de couverture : "Simone de Beauvoir expliquait l'offre de la prostitution féminine par la demande expresse qu'en font ses clients. De la même manière, il suffirait que le spectacle de la mort ce…sse d'alimenter le sadisme inavoué des amateurs de corridas pour que la torture légale des taureaux soit supprimée. Derrière les mots de "tradition", de "spectacle", "d'art" se cache aussi, malsaine et millénaire, la passion inavouable de la mort. Les spectateurs qui applaudissaient autrefois le massacre des gladiateurs sont les mêmes qui jouissent, aujourd'hui, de la mise à mort du taureau. Le goût du cadavre, de la souffrance et du sang n'a pas vieilli. Simplement, derrière les ors, la lumière, la fanfare et de fallacieux prétextes, s'exprime une passion morbide. Celui ou celle qui n'oserait pas tordre le cou à un poulet, se repaît de l'agonie d'un splendide animal. Les condamnés de la place de Grève n'étaient-ils pas déjà l'objet d'une curiosité morbide ? Et si les exécutions publiques ont été interdites par l'État, c'est bien parce qu'elles provoquaient des élans malsains auprès d'un public friand de meurtre. Car enfin, de quel droit l'être humain peut-il, au nom de son seul plaisir, torturer un autre être vivant, sous prétexte que ce dernier est plus faible ou moins intelligent ? Je me sens complice, toute cruauté me révolte, et c'est cette révolte-là que je veux porter dans le discours anti-corrida.". Signé par l'auteur. Livre.

Soft Cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. (Nightstand Book NB 1587 aSn) Paperback Original. Vintage pulp paperback with colorful GGA painted cover. Bull-fighting themes with matador on the cover. Cover copy reads: OLE! OLE! That was the cry he loved best, the cry from a thousand women's throats as they saw him spear their… sex desires down there in the arena, as he showed them he was virile, hot and anxious to sample them as he sampled the black and charging monsters he killed with such ease . . . He was a Yankee bull fighter, a man whose bed was never empty, whose arms were always open to any beautiful woman - all women; and Guy Moran used them ruthlessly, mercilessly, as they gave themselves to him in screaming fury, in unleashed lusts that threatened to kill him much more quickly than the horns of the toros! Meet Guy Moran, a matador with an insatiable hunger, and meet the women who made that hunger even greater - Bambi, Madge, Vita, among a legion of women who brought him to the realization that the thrills of the bull ring were not half so dangerous as the lustful moments lost in a wanton's arms! BLOOD AND PASSION! First paragraph(s): IT WAS DREADFULLY HOT in Chalupa. Guy Moran stretched his tall, athletic six foot, two inch frame to its full length, and tried to relax. His angular hands hung limp on his flat abdomen, and Guy looked externally relaxed, but the back of his eyeballs hurt. It was fear, plain and simple fear, and inside him it was real. In about one and a half hours, Guy would take another step toward the top of his spectacular profession. Guy was a bullfighter. Paperback Original. Size: 4.25" x 6.4". 189 pages. Text unmarked. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. Some age-toning to page edges. Some reading-wear, cover creasing and bumping to corners. Some speckling to cover (slight).
