105<p>Synopsis</p><p>"In Memoriam to Identity is a weird violent searing angry work full of pain dislocation desire hate and the raging drive of resistant creation. . . . Kathy Acker has invented a form of secret historiography a language of shock and sensation that provides a vivid disruptive unsettling readout on the psychosocial trauma of our time."--Tim Clark Los Angeles Times Book Review.</p><p>Reviews</p><p>Acker known for her scatological excursions into the demimonde of post-modernism is above all a literalist and a literary one at that. If her concern is the alienation wrought by industrialization she literally appropriates Dickens's Pip as she did in her first novel sassily titled Great Expectations and thrusts him into the complexities of her time. In this new book Acker mourns the childhood innocence mostly sexual lost to socialization. She invokes the writings of Rimbaud and Faulkner blending them with modern angst and not a little political posturing--about AIDS Thatcherism etc. The book's four interlocking stories detail Rimbaud's doomed relationships with his mother and the poet Verlaine Quentin Compson's deluded engagement with his unfolding fate and the tragic exploitation again mostly sexual of several other characters. The tie that binds these narratives is the frenetic struggle to escape from the limitations of the social self. Acker writes with the coldest beauty and the most perfervid excess; she will find the audience that wants nothing in between. <br />Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information Inc.<br /><br />Acker's is not polite fiction nor is it naturalistic. It is however challenging certainly in its style and form but even more in its smart articulated anger and willingness to affront its audience. Appropriating the lives and works of Rimbaud and Faulkner this novel continues the challenge. The novel's first three sections introduce its three story lines: Rimbaud and his complex miserable affair with the older poet Verlaine; Airplane a young woman working in a sex show whose story concerns innocence and wildness and public and private acts; and Capitol the lover of Faulkner's Quentin Compson a girl struggling free of her parents' influence. As Acker's title warns memory and identity are linked. Themes recur and change joining the novel's separate parts until the individual stories themselves become joined and their characters interact. There is much to praise in this difficult novel not least of which is Acker's confident manipulation of narrative technique.<br /><em>- Kevin Ray Washington Univ.

2007103077Perth: Form. 2007. Square octavo stiff illustrated wraps colour illus pp 87. Includes loosely inserted DVD: "The Canning Stock Route Project" Landline ABC TV feature 16/9/2007". Near fine condition. Scarce. Describes and illustrates the very early stages of the Canning Stock Route Project. with quotes from and illustrations of the artists involved. "The Project tells an intercultural and intergenerational story of community collaboration and reconciliation. Initiated by FORM in 2006 the Project always aimed to be more than the production and presentation of art: asking audiences to get to know the artists and learn from their stories and aspirations to explore the cultural diversity of Aboriginal communities and their interconnections with each other and their Country and their part in a greater Australian story. . The Canning Stock Route cuts a single line across three deserts - the Great Sandy the Little Sandy and the Gibson - along nearly 2000 kilometres of unforgiving dirt track and hundreds of sandhills. Although the non-Indigenous history of the stock route is fairly well-known the Aboriginal story has until now only been glimpsed in paintings of celebrated Aboriginal artists like Rover Thomas and Eubena Nampitjin. The Canning Stock Route Project set out to tell this story through Aboriginal art and in Aboriginal voices. Working directly with the art centres the Canning Stock Route Project researched the artists' connections to the Canning Stock Route story recording hundreds of oral histories painting stories and hundreds of hours of exquisitely shot high definition digital film."
