Kathy Acker Bücher
18. April 1947 – 30. November 1997
Kathy Acker war eine bahnbrechende postmoderne Autorin, deren Werke die Grenzen von Sexualität, Identität und Macht ausloteten. Ihr Schreiben zeichnet sich durch seinen experimentellen Charakter aus, indem es Genres vermischt und Fragmentierung und Collage einsetzt. Acker tauchte in die dunkleren und oft tabuisierten Aspekte der menschlichen Erfahrung ein und forderte konventionelle Erzählformen und Leserwartungen heraus. Ihr provokativer und kompromissloser Stil macht sie zu einer einzigartigen und einflussreichen Figur in der Literatur.

Bis aufs Blut
Zerfleischt in der Highschool
Aus dem Amerikanischen von Borchardt, Kirsten ; Grzonka, Patricia Mit Abb. 271 S.
The incredible variety of Acker's body of work has been distilled into a single volume that reads like a communique from the front lines of late-20th century America. Acker was a literary pirate whose prodigious output drew promiscuously from popular culture, the classics of Western civilization, current events, and the raw material of her own life.
This collection features three early self-published novels by Kathy Acker, showcasing her pioneering voice in experimental literature. Accompanied by a new introduction from Kate Zambreno, the book highlights Acker's unique narrative style and thematic explorations. Readers can expect to delve into Acker's unconventional storytelling and bold exploration of identity, sexuality, and the boundaries of language.
Kathy Acker: The Last Interview

Kathy Acker was a punk-rock counter-cultural icon, and innovator of the literary underground. The interviews collected here span her amazing, uncompromising, and often misunderstood 30-year career. From Acker's earliest interviews--filled with playful, evasive, and counter-intuitive responses--to the last interview before her death where she reflects on the state of American literature, these interviews capture the writer at her funny and surprising best. Another highlight includes Acker's 1997 interview with the Spice Girls on the forces of pop and feminism (which reads as if it could have been conducted with a new generation of pop star in 2018).
