Intoxication: Heathcliff on Powell Street
Description:
The second edition of the 1976 art memoir by performance poet and avant gardist Hedwig Gorski has a slightly different cover inscribed in silver on the front cover and half the price of the first edition. Added are several photos of the second production directed by John Keller at Voltaire's Basement in the early 1980s taken by Mark Christal. If you want to know where and how performance poetry started, read this memoir of Austin when it was still anything-goes art crazy ready for the new and self-discovery by any means. The story of how a hybrid, neo-verse drama using William Burroughs cut-up method and conceptual art theory, became what Gorski ultimately named performance poetry: poetry written for performance and not for the page.
