Portraits From Memory, 1975

 Item
Identifier: CC-39125-41067
Scope and Contents

Van der Donk comments: "First edition of this fictional series of "portraits from memory" of female sexual conquests, the descriptive words forming visual poems in the author's hand, lithographically reproduced here. The memories of the encounters (which again are fictional - fact which is emphasied by dates which certainly precede the dawn of the author's sexual activity) are fundamentally a series of quick judgements, mean-spirited physical descriptions and occasionally, fond remembrances. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
