From the library of the poet Janine Pommy Vega. Vega and Wojnarowicz knew one another and had a correspondence and relationship. This book gifted to Janine Pommy Vega by the poet and Vega's close friend Hettie Jones, inscribed to Janine affectionately by Jones and also tipped in with notes from Jones to Janine. There is also a large article from the New York Times not dated by Vince Passaro titled "The Last Outsider" dealing with David Wojnarowicz - who died of complications relating to AIDS in 1992 at the age of 37. This is the early publication by Serpent's Tail 1992. A Vintage Books preceded this edition in 1991, and this is the British edition and more scarce. An excellent association copy between three writers that knew one another and lived within the same literary sphere. Fine bright wraps.
