Produktbeschreibung
Since time immemorial, sacred texts have been approached with reverence. Whether it be the Dead Sea Scrolls, Shakespeare's sonnets or the Gettysburg Address, all have been analyzed with high-mindedness and a tight ass. John J. Trause's "Exercises in High Treason" has arrived to blow the hot air away with a fresh blast of inventiveness. Playfully reinterpreting and subverting the words of the mighty or even the most banal advertising copy, he has created poetry that is a brain teaser. A rib tickler. Like Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, and Guillaume Apollinaire, Trause adores rewiring the absurd and the lyrical. With a tactile appearance on the page which also qualifies it as modern art, "Exercises in High Treason" will be the book you will pass around at your smart dinner party.

Autorenporträt
John J. Trause, born the same year the Factory was born, never visited the Factory, but he was raised there in spirit and light by Andy Warhol and his Superstars. The author of books of poetry and parody and a contributor to many art and literary journals and anthologies, John J. Trause moves between the worlds of art, poetry, and scholarship like Mary Woronov swimming underground.
