Genet makes the erotically impossible possible. He creates nuns in black lace panties, bare-breasted prostitutes with the flowing tails of ponies. But the whores, pimps, sadists and lesbians who people his plays are also his army of revenge marshaled against the world. The ritual murder of a white woman in The Blacks is a Negro act only insofar as it contains the death wish of the outcast...
