- Summary:
- "A loosely formed autobiography written with Warhol's trademark blend of irony and detachment, The Philosophy of Andy Warhol is a compelling and eccentric memoir that riffs and reflects on all things Warhol: relationships, hard-won life lessons, and his unique childhood in Pennsylvania, as well as the explosion of his career in the sixties and the pleasures and perils of life among the rich and famous. Celebrating ths fiftieth anniversary of the original 1975 publication, this edition features a new introduction by Hilton Als, who writes: "Over and over again, this lonely person -- so rich in the isolation of fame -- tries to talk to us, to connect with us." The Philosophy is perhaps the closest Warhol came to doing just that."--Page 4 of cover.
