Talk:Joan Vollmer

message: I dont know how often someone comes to this page, but if anyone can let me know how accurate it is that she was actually born IN Loudonville, New York I would find that helpful. Loudonville does not, and never has had, a hospital, but she couldve been born at home I suppose since it was the 1920s.Camelbinky (talk) 01:04, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

message: I know this is a nitpick, but isn't a woman going to college in New York in the 1940s essentially INDICATIVE of the upper-middle (and upper, period) class?  The article makes it sound as if she "broke ranks", or even "slummed", by going to college.  I gotta disagree.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.235.56.24 (talk) 07:07, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

message: The article mentions two different but very similar addresses. Is this a typo or did she live at both places? 
"You should always cook eggs slowly" was Joan's advice in the kitchen on 118th Street. Joan did everything slowly, Edie reflected; 
In Jack Kerouac's last work (The Vanity of Duluoz), he describes the scene in the 119th street apartment as "a year of low, evil decadence", beginning near the close of 1944:  — Preceding unsigned comment added by She who wants to know (talk • contribs) 09:39, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

message: The section entitled "marriage" is misleading. There was no marriage.  "Common-law" marriage is also a wrong, as there is no such thing in most countries.Royalcourtier (talk) 04:30, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

message: Just a quick note, I added some references on Vollmer's death to the William Burroughs page that I noticed are missing on this page. If anyone wants to take a look at that page and throw darts at it, I will circle back around later and migrate the references to this page, since it seems to need a little bibliographic love. --Modemx (talk) 03:40, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

message: Joan's death is also depicted, albeit in a highly fictionalised form, in Naked Lunch (1991), one of David Cronenberg's "body horror" offerings. I think it at least deserves a mention; considering the film was made with Burroughs' active participation. Nuttyskin (talk) 19:19, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
