As a kind of extention from the Gypsy Rose thing, I wanted to write a short story about a girl who works in an upmarket strip joint that tries to masqurade as a burlesque house.
I'm more intrested in the use of language and might try to rip off (intertextualise) something by Chuck Palahunic... short sentences, really hard hitting points, lists, deconstructed form... that type of thing, but ill just do my own thing in the end!
I found this on Wikipdeia
"In literary criticism, burlesque is often used as a generic term to describe any imitative work that derives humor from an incongruous contrast between style and subject. " Perhaps I should really ponder and absorb some of these quotes...
perhaps not!
