I don't think we should try to categorize these books.
There is a danger that if you start trying to fit original texts into
categories, they kind of lose something. Especially something like Empire
of The Senseless. Maybe we should draw parallels between the
books, but I think Acker, Drucker, wrote in order to try to deconstruct
categories and make us aware of the constraints that are put on texts and
even on people in order to try to fit them into pigeon holes with neat
labels.
I'm not sure if I'm really saying what I want to say,
it's late, I give up....
