In Close to the Knives, David Wojnarowicz gives us an important and timely document: a collection of creative essays -- a scathing, sexy, sublimely humorous and honest personal testimony to the "Fear of Diversity in America." From the author's violent childhood in suburbia to eventual homelessness on the streets and piers of New York City, to recognition as one of the most provocative artists of his generation -- Close to the Knives is his powerful and iconoclastic memoir. Street life, drugs, art and nature, family, AIDS, politics, friendship and acceptance: Wojnarowicz challenges us to examine our lives -- politically, socially, emotionally, and aesthetically.

Total disappointment
Color: White, Size: X-Large, Color: White, Size: X-Large
Coofandy is my go to shop. Has been for years! Need this blazer for an event tomorrow, and it came in today with a yellow stain from inside the package. Can't return it because I need it, so it's going straight to the cleaners. Fits perfect as normal. This is my first, under 5 star review for Coofandy.
