Soon we will have only emails - this is the first email correspondence I've read. And I enjoyed the story of a love affair, but not with the same affection I have for epistolary collections. ( )

I'm very into you. Correspondence 1995-1996 is a lousy book. The introduction relates how a reader for a publisher turned the manuscript down on the grounds that it is too personal. While this may not be true, that evaluation may have been a euphemistic statement for overall lack of quality.

Nonetheless, the author(s) have pushed on to publication. The book consists of the email correspondance between two postmodernist writers. It is hard to say (see) whether all emails are included, but as some are very short, it could well be.

It seems so far no one has dared to evaluate or comment on the relative value of email correspondence. Computer writing has made novel writing longer. Many of these emails seem to have been dashed off.

Although the authors claim that this was a love affair, they were literally worlds apart. The phrase included in the title: I am very into you does not seem very passionate. As for an exchange of ideas, it seems there is quite a lot of namesdropping, but no very clear acknowledgement that both writers have thoroughly read or understood these thinkers, although Acker seems the more thoughtful, while Wark (Mckenzie Wark) seems the more infatuated and less knoledgeable.

While reading, I have also thought whether this book could give clues to the origin or the rise of the Queer movement. The authors are clearly very versatile. So, even while the correspondence it itself seems of little value, it could be that it is of interest on a different plain, especially when read in a wider context.

This was my first book to read anything by Kathy Acker of whom I had previously not even heard, but it has sparked my interest. ( )

don't know what to say about this. two real people, a gay woman and a gay man living in different countries? having an affair, done with emails. ( )

I like Kathy Acker. Two smart people discussing philosophy and gender as they deepen a bond and figure out boundaries. These correspondences weren't meant to be shared but I don't feel voyeuristic.
