Kathy Acker

The way that Acker writes this essay is very unique. She relates language to the physical activity of body building. I think that works well with the message that Acker is trying to convey. She is trying to show that there is a lot more to athletes than people think. She describes what she does as a body builder and how that relates to the way in which she communicates. I think that it works well the way that she brings up literature in the beginning of the essay and ties it together at the end with it. The reader gets the real perspective of the essay through Acker's form of writing.
