« SOUS HISTOIRE DE RATS, IL Y AVAIT KAFKA » (CORNILLE) 105 pp. - [1] f. - [3] pl., broché. Édition originale illustrée de 3 eaux-fortes d'Alberto Giacometti. Tirage limité à 210 exemplaires. Celui-ci le n°174 imprimé sur vélin teinté des papeteries de rives, dernier papier après 40 exemplaires sur vélin blanc augmentés de suites. Avec « Orestie » et « Dianus », « Histoire de rats » constitue une des trois parties de Haine de la poésie, ouvrage d'inspiration kafkaïenne qui paraît la même année aux éditions de Minuit. On s'accorde généralement à reconnaître, dans les portraits des personnages brossés par Giacometti, proche de Bataille depuis 1929, les traits de l'auteur (D.) et de son épouse Diane (B.), et, selon Laurie Wilson, du philosophe Alexander Kojève (A.), maître à penser de Bataille. (Alberto Giacometti: Myth, Magic, and the Man, p. 226). Infime accroc au dos et frottements aux coiffes.
