Inhaltsangabe

An art-world faux memoir about a 1979-80 love triangle set in New York’s Lower East Side, Haiti, Paris, and Timbuktu. Zachary, an art collector with roots in the flea markets, and FleX, an eccentric and self-destructive artist, are both in love with Rachel, a model from Haiti. Zachary is instrumental in creating FleX's meteoric career, even as he impregnates Rachel. The resulting chaos is corrupt, funny, and eventually catastrophic. “A personal account of the players and hangers-on who live with art at the center of their lives. Some achieve fame, others wealth, some nothing at all, but all are aware of the magnitude of the elusiveness of it all.” – Peter Nagy, Nature Morte, New Delhi “Unplugged Yellow is a fascinating account of New York City in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. It takes me right back to the terror and beauty of that time. It is a mesmerizing read.” - Jennifer Clement, author of Widow Basquiat
