Jill Johnston

Author and Critic

It is quite possible that Jill Johnston is one of the most important, radical, and innovative writers of her time.

Gregory Battcock

The reputation of this rare primary source document [Marmalade Me, reissued] of the 1960s performance scene in New York has unquestionably grown since its original publication. It stands as a portrait of a pivotal decade in radical American art criticism and art.

Janice L. Ross

Johnston comes on like a flood, vivacious, mile-a-minute, with an uncontrollable eloquence.

New York Review of Books

Someday, whenever the tangled histories of the interdisciplinary sixties art scene, of new journalism and experimental female/feminist autobiographical writing, or of lesbians and the avant-garde, get written, Jill Johnstons life and work will receive key billing. . . . Johnston was an originator. Her constant experimentation with language emerged from a genuine effort to record and communicate new and disruptive art forms, social realities, and states of consciousness.

Liz Kotz

"At Sea On Land" is a wild ride, at times comic, erudite, seductive, hard-headed, intensely political, and always written into the page. In its wrap-around shot at combining the lands of her birth and upbringing, respectively the UK and the USA, this is a Johnston classic.

England's Child	$27.95
It is a superb biography of the author’s father, Cyril F. Johnston, a foremost English bellfounder in the earlier half of the 20th century, who helped introduce the Carillon—the largest yet least known musical instrument in the world—to North America. It is also an erudite study of the Carillon, its history, its renaissance in tuning, and the dramas of competition in both English and American markets between Cyril Johnston and his compatriot rivals.
