Mother: Demonology by Kathy Acker
£150.00
New York: Pantheon Books, 1993. Proof copy. Kathy Acker’s thirteenth novel, My Mother: Demonology is an exploration of love, desire and power, that takes the character back to her childhood’s memories and experiences. This experimental and boundary pushing novel, composed of fragments and references to cult and canonical works of literature and film, is a fantastic example of Kathy Acker’s impulse to turn literary and aesthetic precepts inside out. An acclaimed novel by a countercultural icon.
Paperback, light blue wraps. Very slight wear on corners, otherwise in almost fine condition. Laid in is a folded proof of the publisher’s dust jacket, with black ink stamp in verso.
