During the years 2014-2024, as America went full-tilt infantile and nearly overdosed on fraudulent sanctimony, Gene Gregorits was languishing in a series of American prisons composing a 3,000 page novel about time travel, pop music, World War 3, and true love. He claims to have produced the most important prose work of the last 200 years, but there are two problems: first, no one in their right mind wants to come anywhere near Gregorits, which is to say his work, and secondly, he may not release the complete work until he is himself released from and by the state of Florida. In this carefully selected and heavily censored excerpt from the cosmic MY KATE LIKE THE SEASHORE, Gregorits revisits a New York City of the mid-1990s, where a young man's tumultuous marriage to an enigmatic young lesbian comes to an end while another friendship, with notorious filmmaker and artist, Nick Zedd, is born. In turns sensitive and demonic, Gregorits' unique ability to interweave histories both pop cultural and personal, while examining his own pathology among a picaresque coterie of downtown freaks, makes for a hallucinatory, frequently breathtaking trip down memory lane which is quite unlike anything you've ever experienced before, in any genre or medium. Gregorits, famously (and falsely) accused of more atrocities than Al Capone and Charles Manson combined, is back to confront the Great Brainwashing; his dedication to the Thoughtful Few remains unbroken. Discover a new literary formula, and a wild new species of writer, in NICK ZEDD: An Education.
