Kraus masterfully navigates Acker’s complex legacy, drawing connections between her work and feminist autofiction as well as acknowledging how her sexuality, violence, and raw emotionality became icons in New York’s downtown scene. Additionally, she draws upon diaries and published texts as evidence of how Acker’s experience informed her formal experimentation.

Personal Life
Acker’s personal life is often at the core of her writing. Her relationships with friends, lovers, and former classmates form the basis for much of her material; this book explores details she never spoke openly about (sexual encounters and struggles with pelvic inflammatory disease), while simultaneously dismantling any mythologies surrounding herself.
Johann Adam Eckhardt was an immigrant ancestor of New York State Palatine lineage who settled in Rhinebeck and other areas of Dutchess County. Following the death of his first wife, he remarried and his descendants from this second union were an early Eckert/Acker presence here in Dutchess County. However, his descent from Johan Adam of Wiesbaden remains unknown at present; more research will reveal more information in due time and this section will be updated as more becomes known.
