Switching Mirrors is (paper)back!
Vanessa’s magical collection of cut-up poetry, SWITCHING MIRRORS, is now available as a paperback! Switching Mirrors is an amazing collection of cut-ups and mind-expanding poetry by Vanessa Sinclair. Delving into the unconscious and actively utilising the “third mind” as developed by William S Burroughs and Brion Gysin, Sinclair roams through suggestive vistas of magic, witchcraft, dreams, psychoanalysis, sex and sexuality (and more). Causal apprehensions are disrupted by a flow of impressions that open up the mind of the reader. What’s behind language and our use of it? What happens when random factors and the unconscious are given free reign in poetic form? Switching Mirrors is what happens. US: UK/Europe: (Or your regional Amazon site) Trapart Books have a few copies left of the deluxe, first edition of the book, which comes with a cut-up collage print by Vanessa: To hear the musical versions of many of these pieces, please check out the Switching AND Mirrors...

Italian softcore maestro Tinto Brass jumped on this “Nazisploitation” bandwagon and graduated with honors; with his “Salon Kitty” (1976) he carved out a place in film history (more so than with his following epic, “Caligula,” (1979)) that’s irrevocable – also not unlike Cavani. Ingrid Thulin portrays Madame Kitty – in charge of her own brothel, and carrying on in a carefree Weimar spirit. This changes when SS officer Wallenberg (exquisitely portrayed by Helmut Berger) tells her to move her business to new premises – a property prepared with microphones in each room. With a stable of new girls, chosen for their devotion to National Socialism and thoroughly examined by Wallenberg and the SS, Kitty has her hands full again. Thulin is absolutely wonderful as the hysteric Madame. For...
