Kathy Acker
Kathy Acker (April 18, 1947 [disputed] – November 30, 1997) was an American
experimental novelist, playwright, essayist, and
postmodernist writer, known for her idiosyncratic and transgressive writing that dealt with themes such as
childhood trauma, sexuality and rebellion. Her writing incorporates
pastiche and the
cut-up technique, involving cutting-up and scrambling passages and sentences; she also defined her writing as existing in the post-''
nouveau roman'' European tradition. In her texts, she combines biographical elements, power, sex and violence.
