I am one of the organisers of the activist group AAVOWIL (Artists Against Violence On Women In Literature)
This week I received an invitation from the usually respectable art publisher Book Works regarding the launch of a new ‘novel’ by shlock-author and wannabe enfant terrible, Stewart Home called ‘Blood Rites of the Bourgeoisie’.
This so-called ‘Avant-garde’ piece of literature is nothing more than total filth; shocking, horrific, violent, aggressive, abusive, exploitative, disgusting. It is being used as a thinly disguised vehicle for attack on an exhaustive list of leading international female artists, as well as female figures from cultural history and, therefore, ON ALL WOMEN. Stewart Home is clearly nothing but a bilious, contemptible, misogynistic aggressor.
We deny all degrading insinuations, innuendos and accusations. We oppose categorically and absolutely to this appalling filth being placed openly into the public arena and demand that it be prevented from publication in the UK and abroad.
We want this book banned with IMMEDIATE EFFECT and Home arrested for the propagation of pornographic material and incitement of sexual violence.
