“After Kathy Acker” (2017) by Chris Kraus. Chosen by Paul B. Preciado.
“‘To lie is to try,’ Chris Kraus writes in this examination of the various personae of Kathy Acker, the fucked-up girl from high school who, through lying and trying, became an experimental writer of rare courage and vision. In some ways a contemporary and in some ways as far off as the days when people moved to New York and San Francisco for the cheap rent, Acker needed a key, and Chris Kraus provides it.” (Benjamin Moser).
We will be reading the first three chapters of Chis Kraus new book, “After Kathy Acker” (2016). The extract is available as a PDF here. Read as much as you can.
