how to win the lottery s5e6 – blood and guts in high school by kathy acker
our un/adaptable module continues with blood and guts in high school by kathy acker, which is difficult to adapt for many reasons. joey kicks things off by explaining how tulsa has changed his brain before we dive into blood and guts in high school to talk about its three distinct sections and its collage style/presentation. we also break down its focuses on the body and language itself, and whether or not it’s meant to be read as autobiography. we praise acker’s ability to write a book in this style and talk about the depiction of men in her work. tulsa gets mad at people on the internet. joey REALLY struggles with charles dickens.
