Paul Buck, like Acker, works as writer, performer and teacher in the visual arts world, allowing him more scope for the transgressive nature that's found in all his work, stretching back to the 1970's, when as editor of the seminal magazine Curtains, he blasted french contemporary writings into the british bloodstream.

Résumé
For this encounter, Paul Buck met Kathy Acker, the american author of ground-breaking books of textual and narrative pulsations,who died in 1997. From a series of her letters to him, Buck creates a fiction that plays with issues central to Acker's heart, grounded as she was in art, literature, philosophy, latin and avant-garde film. Away to confront the issues of appropriation. To spread wide not only the thighs, but also the page and writing itself.
This book triggers further encounters from writer Rebecca Stephens and writer/artist John Cussans, as well as a string of others dragged into the foray.
