Says Thomas Bauzou, a professor of ancient history at France’s Université d’Orléans who does archaeological research in Gaza: “From the Islamic point of view, it is an idol and an impudicity.”

Past feeling says the apostle of the brazen impudicity of his time.

In everything they stink of impudicity and villainy.

Let us not confuse the issue: The spectacle of a woman fondling passionately a severed and reeking head and puling over its dead-94- lips, is not necessarily deleterious to morals, nor is it necessarily an act of impudicity; it is merely, for those whose calling does not happen to induce familiarity with mortuary things, horrible and revolting.

The book survives as an unholy missal of impudicity, a small black classic that, in literary opinion, excuses its sins with its skill.
