"I would strongly recommend Joan Acocella’s Mark Morris (1995), which as a biography embodies the new classicism she elegantly attributes to Morris. It made me even more admiring of Acocella’s style and gravitas than I was after reading her collected profiles, Twenty-Eight Artists and Two Saints (2008).
I was also really struck by Eileen Myles’s memoir Inferno (published by innovative print-on-demand publisher OR Books this year). The writing is brilliant, erratic, and gripping; several scenes from her often terrifying downtown-in-the-‘70s are permanently stuck in my brain."
