Henry Miller, Genet, Sade, Bataille are really important writers for me and I love them, but I feel often they don__ love me, you know? I feel I always have to wrap my head around the way the girl is treated in the works, and the way the woman writer has been treated within their philosophies. I think of Kathy Acker__ Blood and Guts in High School, where Janey Smith is in an S&M relationship with Jean Genet, who she follows around the deserts of Algeria, and he__ horrible to her, and that__ what I think of when I think of my relationship to those writers. I think you have to read the text, obviously, despite that. You seem to be subverting Sade and Bataille__ ideas of the whore, and Henry Miller _ all of his cunt portraits, all of his horrors that he writes about _ you__e writing about it from an interiority and a subjectivity that we don__ typically get with the __hore_ or the __lut_ or the sexual girl.
