"What if you tore apart the city's tenderloin; if you seized its ephemera and--before burning all the sweet voodoo--collected the best, and most brilliant cuts? This is Liz Worth's stylish master-nightmare, No Work Finished Here . This is 'the start of something true.'" --Lynn Crosbie, author of Where Did You Sleep Last Night, "What if you tore apart the city's tenderloin; if you seized its ephemera and--before burning all the sweet voodoo--collected the best, and most brilliant cuts? This is Liz Worth's stylish master-nightmare, No Work Finished Here. This is 'the start of something true.'" -- Lynn Crosbie, author of Where Did You Sleep Last Night, "Saying wow isn't saying enough ... No Work Finished Here gains immediate entry into that lovely pantheon of absolutely essential Canadian poetry classics." --Today's Book of Poetry, "Whether it be poetry, performance art, or prose, Liz Worth has the uncanny ability to turn the grotesque and profane into something sublime and sensual. With PostApoc , she has taken this to a higher level by solidifying her unique voice and bringing rock 'n' roll to its logical dystopian conclusion." --Brandon Pitts, author, playwright, and poet, "Liz Worth has created an epic, that even removed from the context of rewriting Andy Warhol's A, a novel, stands on its own as a collection that expertly portrays all of our fears and worries and struggles public and not-so-public in these concise, gut-punchingly beautiful little portraits in time." -- (parenthetical), "Liz Worth's collection of poems is a testament to both her artistry and daily discipline. In an age of diminished attention, her perseverance in daily poem-making by mining the same source over and over reminds us that artists can be a model of life without distraction--how to go deeper and deeper until you find yourself looking back at you." --Heath Allen, composer of ANDY, A popera, "Warhol would be the first to say, in his wrinkly voice, how excited he was that Liz Worth had done this to his novel. He might have even said something clever like, "It should have just been poetry all along." -- subTerrain Magazine, "The end of the world is not a new idea. Liz Worth writes as if it were. You come away gasping. Begging for hope. Begging for happiness. Begging for the sanctuary of the unreal. PostApoc makes Cormac's The Road seem paved with yellow brick. You'll need more air after reading this." --Bob Bryden, singer-songwriter, founding member of Christmas, Reign Ghost, Benzene Jag, and Age of Mirrors

Synopsis
Poetry. When Andy Warhol's a, A Novel was first published in 1968, The New York Times Book Review declared it "pornographic." Yet over four decades later, a, A Novel continues to be an essential documentation of Warhol's seminal Factory scene. And though the book offers a pop art snapshot of 1960s Manhattan that only Warhol could capture, it remains a challenging read. Comprised entirely of unedited transcripts of recorded conversations taped in and around the Warhol Factory, the original book's tone varies from frenetic to fascinating, unintelligible to poetic. NO WORK FINISHED HERE: REWRITING ANDY WARHOL by Liz Worth attempts to change that, by appropriating the original text and turning each page into a unique poem. In remixing a, A Novel into poetry using only words and phrases from each piece's specified page, Worth sets the scene for the reader, not unlike eavesdropping in a 24-hour diner, with poetry full of voices competing to be heard, hoping for just a sliver of attention at the end of a long, desperate night. True to Worth's style, the poems in this collection hiss and pop with confessional whispers while maintaining the raw, distorted qualities originally captured on tape and documented in a, A Novel . Warhol fans, archivists, and academics, as well as readers of confessional and conceptual poetry and fiction, will jump at the chance to be a part of the Factory in-crowd in NO WORK FINISHED HERE: REWRITING ANDY WARHOL.

Item arrived exactly as described/pictured despite only being shipped in a media plastic bag mailer. I would have appreciated the book being sandwiched between cardboard or bubble wrap, but all's well that ends well.Reply from: capemaymercantile- Feedback replied to by seller capemaymercantile.- Feedback replied to by seller capemaymercantile.Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and I am glad that the book arrived to you on time! 9 times out of 10 I do use bubble wrap or cardboard to protect a book if I ship it in a polymailer but I was moving fast on the day I shipped this to you and neglected this step. Going forward I will try to always do it -- it's an important step! Thanks again for your purchase.
