Books like Watchfiends and Rack Screams: Works from the Final Period

From the thin line between genius and madness that Artaud had often walked enigmatically, he appears to have left the line completely during this period, in the process of becoming "suicided by society", meditating on alchemy, and myth, Nerval's hanging himself by street lamp being more than just a bit foretelling. He never ceases, though, in being both a genius and mad. "There is no inside, no spirit, outside or consciousness, nothing butthe body as it may be seen, a body that does not cease being, even whenthe eye that sees it falls. And that body is a fact. Me."
