Chelsea Girls: A Novel,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Available once again for a new generation of readers, the groundbreaking and candid comingofage novel inrealtime from one of America's most celebrated poets that is considered a cult classic.In this breathtakingly inventive autobiographical novel, Eileen Myles transforms their life into a work of art. Told in an audacious voice, made vivid and immediate in lyrical language, Chelsea Girls cobbles together memories of Myles 1960s Catholic upbringing with an alcoholic father, their volatile adolescence, their unabashed lesbianity, and their riotous pursuit of survival as a poet in 1970s New York.Suffused with alcohol, drugs, and sex; evocative in its depictions of the hardscrabble realities of a young artists life; and poignant with stories of love, humor, and discovery, Chelsea Girls is a funny, cool, and intimate account of a writers education, and a modern chronicle of how a young writer shrugged off the chains of a rigid cultural identity meant to define them.
