Totally bizarre Kathy Acker cameo amid the appalling Neil Gaiman stuff.

We’re starting today June 1st with Kathy Acker - NYC performance artist, writer, gender & sexuality activist.

This account is run by a third wave and a fourth wave feminist and we can’t even contemplate all the impact of Kathy Acker’s influence and work.

Choose a passive-aggressive number of books that shaped you. Even if you are indifferent to or despise them now. No explanations.
Blood and Guts in High School by Kathy Acker

Kathy Acker was a writer, a performer, a punk, a body builder, and gone much too soon. Books like BLOOD AND GUTS IN HIGH SCHOOL and EMPIRE OF THE SENSELESS are essential reading. And she turned me on to Cormac McCarthy. I miss her all the time. Happy birthday, Kathy.

Kathy Acker by Sophie Bassouls, Paris. 1969
"She was a bodybuilder, in the process of getting a glorious back tattoo, rode a motorbike, owned a pair of lovebirds, knew almost everyone, delighted in passing on other people’s secrets & in keeping many of her own."

“Every time you read, you are walking among the dead, and, if you are listening, you just might hear prophecies.”

Happy birthday, Kathy Acker, a great writer and a lovely person. We saw a press screening of Cronenberg's Crash and Fire Walk With Me on opening night. In both cases, we were the only ones smiling at the end, laughing at the waves of movie hate all around us. Love you, Kathy.
