An artist associated with the New York School of poets, Joe Brainard (1942-1994) was
a wonderful writer whose one-of-a-kind autobiographical work "I Remember" has had
a wide and growing influence. It is joined in this major new retrospective with many
other pieces that for the first time present the full range of Brainard's writing
in all its deadpan wit, madcap inventiveness, self-revealing frankness, and generosity
of spirit, gathering intimate journals, jottings, stories, one-liners, comic strips,
mini-essays, and short plays, many of them available until now only as expensive rarities,
if at all. "Brainard disarms us with the seemingly tossed-off, spontaneous nature
of his writing and his stubborn refusal to accede to the pieties of self-importance,"
writes Paul Auster in the introduction to this collection. "These little works . .
. are not really about anything so much as what it means to be young, that hopeful,
anarchic time when all horizons are open to us and the future appears to be without
limits." Assembled by the author's longtime friend and biographer Ron Padgett and
including fourteen previously unpublished works
