Description

New York, NY, U.S.A.: Grove/Atlantic, Incorporated, 1996 Hardcopy with black paper-covered boards and spine, silver printing on spine, is in VERY FINE condition. Brodart-wrapped DJ, NOT price-clipped, is VERY FINE as well. Kathy Acker has been a major figure in postmodern literature for many years. "Pussy, King of the Pirates" continues the original, experimental style that her readers have come to expect. But this new novel takes her work one step further, marking the apex of Acker's abilities as a hypnotic and daring storyteller. Loosely related to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic "Treasure Island," "Pussy, King of the Pirates" is a grrrrl pirate story that journeys from the most famous whorehouse in Alexandria through an unidentified, crumbling city that may or may not be sometime in the future, to Brighton Town, England, and, finally to a ship headed toward Pirate Island, where the stories converge and the vision ends.. First Edition Stated. Hard Cover. Very Fine/Very Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Black Paper-Covered Boards.
