4.0 out of 5 stars Postmodern bliss, May 25 2005
By Angie (Perth, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Don Quixote (Paperback)
Kathy Acker is a truly unique writer. She blends classics, politics, surrealism, autobiographical elements, raw emotion, graphic, "pornographic" scenes, humor and much more into strange, memorable and sometimes confusing postmodern literature. Beacause the author often doesn't follow the laws of a linear plot her works can be difficult to get into. But it's worth the effort. There's nothing like Acker's writing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great!, Dec 29 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Don Quixote (Paperback)
If you're on the lookout for a for an unconventional, surreal, thoughtful, shocking, hilarious, crude, sensitive, and generally disconcerting novel/literary analysis/ treatise/social commentary, check out Acker's _Don Quixote_ and you won't be disappointed.

Reading and digesting Acker's work can occassionally feel strenuous...this is due to the sheer unconventionality of the novel, but the end result yeilds (often hilarious) new insight and is always worth the effort. The piece is a unique blend of politics and fantasy that is highly entertaining and never mainstream. Highly reccomended.
