Excellent- More about Politics of Kathy Acker: Revolution and the Avant-Garde
This study explores the revolutionary politics in the work of one of America's most important avant-garde writers, situating her in broader social, political, and historical contexts and offering an extensive analysis of the intersections between politics and literary form. It asserts Acker's pivotal position in the avant-garde tradition in the twentieth century and opens her texts to a range of theory, making links between literature and other disciplines. It brings the radicalism of Acker's politics back to life, examining her work as a continuation of the historical avant-garde and exploring how she took moments and movements from modern history to create her own political agenda.
