Description

'The Waterfront Journals' is a road trip through the sensuous, perilous landscape of alternative America – a series of fictional monologues that ventriloquise the real people Wojnarowicz met on his travels while he was sleeping rough. We meet these hustlers, runaways and dreamers in unassuming locations – in truck stops, bus stations and parks. Their stories are disturbing, often shocking; but they're told with an honesty and a hallucinatory intensity that demands to be heard. Published for the first time in the UK, this electrifying collection confirms that David Wojnarowicz was not only one of millennial America’s most necessary and visionary artists, but also among its most humane and urgent literary chroniclers.

David Wojnarowicz was a writer, artist, AIDS activist and anticensorship advocate. He wrote five books, and his paintings are exhibited in MoMA and the Whitney Museum of American Art. He died from AIDS in 1992.
