Reply to "Bibliophile Part 2"

Here are just a few of the books I've read so far in recent months:
Close To The Knives--David Wojnarowicz (deep explosive, sexy, pissy, dark and utterly astonishing),
The Waterfront Journals--Wojnarowicz (of another time and place and yet so relevant),
I Put A Spell On You--Nina Simone (what a life she led, I wish I met her),
Billie Holiday:Wishing on the Moon--Donald Clarke (fabulous, better than Lady Sings The Blues, which I also read),
Fever: the Art Of David Wojnarowicz (again),
Brecht --Martin Esslin
Paroles--Jaques Prevert
Brecht poems (assorted translators edited by Mannhiem and Willet)
Tricks-Renaud Camus (this guy records his sexual encounters, sexy and smart, with beauty and brains--in France and America in the swingin' 70s! sorta porny but it really isn't still it's kinda hot)
Violet Quill Reader
My Lives Edmund White (the real stories behind the fictional accounts of them in the various novels White wrote)
