{"product_id":"up-your-ass-valerie-solanas","title":"Up Your Ass, Valerie Solanas","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eValerie Solanas’s rarely published, legendary play, Up Your Ass, explodes social and sexual mores and the hypocritical, patriarchal culture that produces them through her signature irreverence and wit, incisiveness and camp. The play, whose full title is Up Your Ass or From the Cradle to the Boat or The Big Suck or Up from the Slime, marches out a cast of screwy stereotypes: the unknowing john, the frothy career girl, the boring male narcissist, two catty drag queens, the sex-depraved housewife, and a pair of racialised pickup artists, among others. At the centre is protagonist Bongi Perez—a thinly veiled Solanas—a sardonic, gender-bending hustler who escorts us through the back alleys of her street life. The fictionalised predecessor to SCUM Manifesto, the play shares the same grand, subversive, implicative language, equally spitting and winking, embracing the margins, the scum, and selling a trick along the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePublished by Sternberg Press\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSoftcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e94 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e115 x 180 mm \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eISBN 9783956796050\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sternberg Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43932583526614,"sku":"UYAVS01","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2538\/3478\/products\/Montana_Solanas_Up-Your-Ass_Cover-Mockup-600x939.png?v=1673282932","url":"https:\/\/www.thelibraryproject.ie\/it\/products\/up-your-ass-valerie-solanas","provider":"The Library Project","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
