Kathy Acker was one of the original, subversive and influential writers of the late 20th century. This is a collection of essays on Acker's work, including Peter Wollen's primer, and Avital Ronell's meditation on friendship and mourning. It reveals his project, and the ways in which fiction can penetrate the heart of political and cultural life.

Kathy Acker was one of the most original, subversive and influential writers of the late 20th century. Known variously, and notoriously, as a consummate postmodernist, feminist, post-punk and plagiarist, her oeuvreover a dozen novels and novellashas inspired a generation of writers and artists.

Lust for Life is the definitive collection of essays on Acker’s inimitable work, including Peter Wollen’s elegiac primer, widely considered the best introduction to Acker, and Avital Ronell’s erudite meditation on friendship and mourning. Together these essays by scholars and writers reveal Acker’s profound and innovative project, and the ways in which fiction can penetrate the heart of political and cultural life.
