The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again

In The Philosophy of Andy Warhol, the enigmatic, legendary Warhol makes the reader his confidant on love, sex, food, beauty, fame, work, money, success, and much more.

Andy Warhol claimed that he loved being outside a party -- so that he could get in. But more often than not, the party was at his own studio, The Factory, where celebrities -- from Edie Sedgwick and Allen Ginsberg to the Rolling Stones and the Velvet Underground -- gathered in an ongoing bash.

A loosely formed autobiography, told with his trademark blend of irony and detachment, this compelling and eccentric memoir riffs and reflects on all things Warhol: New York, America, and his childhood in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, as well as the explosion of his career in the sixties, and his life among the rich and famous.
