Reviews

"Borowska skillfully analyses Acker's shrapnel-like thoughts through study of her readings about the revolutionary ideas manifested in the events of May 1968, from which radiate political and literary reverberations of other key moments of political crisis in modern history. This is a deeply learned exploration of Kathy Acker's political-philosophical quest.-- ""Kathryn Hume, Edwin Erle Sparks Professor Emerita, The Pennsylvania State University"""
