Memories that smell like gasoline / David Wojnarowicz ; foreword by Ocean Vuong ; a note from the editor by Amy Scholder.

"Here are David Wojnarowiczs most intimate stories and sketches, from the full spectrum of his life as an artist and AIDS activist. Four sections - "Into the Drift and Sway," "Doing Time in a Disposable Body," "Spiral," and "Memories that Smell like Gasoline" - are made of images and indictments of a precocious adolescence, and his later adventures in the streets of New York. Combining text and image, tenderness and rage, Wojnarowicz’s Memories That Smell Like Gasoline is a disavowal of the world that wanted him dead, and a radical insistence on life. The new and revised edition features a foreword by Ocean Vuong and a note from the editor, Amy Scholder."--From publisher's website.
