Christmas was great-right?- perfect credit crunch block-out, when the present worries have passed, I think of it like going on a package holiday. You really dont need to leave the house- you can eat all the time and nothing runs out and its almost compulsory to be lazy. While passing one of these contemplative hours of leisure i started going through my mum's book collection, mainly consisting of spiritually enlightening bricks of paper and then I found this wondrous 80's edition of 'Andy Warhol's Exposures'. Now i still havnt gone to the exhibition.. but I have simply been trying to find a whole day to obsessively experience the entirety every single video in the exhibit.
More than what Warhol actually creates, I really love the way he writes, i find it just as addictive as Bret Ellis novels because both writers obsessively describe the surface of things right down to the very last detail. I love that it is almost objective to the point of slightly in autistic in that conclusions are left to the reader- you are very aware of the behaivoral habits that the writer preferences- but only because there is a pattern in the kind of actions or behaivors he factually decribes.
If anyone gets a chance to read this book I recommend! It offers great insight into the lifestyles of some of the worlds biggest ageing celebrities and how they were connected... I think I may need to share some vintage celebrity photoshoots fro the 90's Interview magazines my friend offloaded onto me...
