Hot And Cold: essays poems lyrics notebooks pictures fiction
Hot And Cold essays poems lyrics notebooks pictures fiction Author:Richard Hell Since he first came to public attention in the 1970s, Richard Hell has made a spectacular if specialized reputation for himself in every conceivable medium--from music, painting, and photography, to fashion, design, and writing. A man with a vision, Hell was the Prophet of Punk: the originator of the spiked haircut; ripped, drawn-on, safety-pinn... more »ed clothes; and the seminal punk anthems Love Comes in Sputs and (I Belong to the) Blank Generation. For the last two decades Hells work has appeared steadily in the widest range of media: poems and notebooks in literary magazines and small-press books; essays in periodicals from Spin to GQ to The Portable Lower East Side; song lyrics in CD booklets; as well as photos, drawings, and paintings on the walls of small New York galleries. On the pages of Hot and Cold, Hells multifarious work is finally gathered under one cover. The book is less a collection or an anthology, and more an astonishing cohesion of the various media that ink on paper can comprise. Just like old times, Hell will blow your mind. ________________________________________________________________________« less
