A celebrated performance artist’s mesmerizing riffs on sex in
American politics. Based on her widely praised performance piece
Unicorn Gratitude Mystery ("Wickedly funny," as described by The
New York Times), Karen Finley’s Grabbing Pussy explores the
Shakespearean dynamics that surface when libidos and loyalties
clash in the public and private personas of Donald Trump, Hillary
and Bill Clinton, Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner, and now Harvey
Weinstein. Standing in the tradition of Allen Ginsberg’s Howl,
Finley’s words jolt the reader into new insights about the ways
the darkly private can drive the public realm in dizzying twists
and turns. The aggression of intimacy, the disparity of gender, and
the vital importance of hair are all encompassed in Finley’s
exhilarating canter.
