In From A to B & Back Again, Andy Warhol turns his own life, fame, friendships, routines and obsessions into a strange, funny and revealing philosophy of modern life. The book moves through subjects such as beauty, money, art, sex, work, celebrity, success, shopping, love and boredom, all filtered through Warhol’s cool, deadpan voice.
Part memoir, part aphorism, part pop-cultural self-portrait, this is one of Warhol’s most readable books. It is a sharp companion piece to his art practice and a useful insight into the world of celebrity, image-making and twentieth-century pop culture.
