In the late 1970s, hitchhiking across America and living on the margins of New York, he collected the stories of hustlers, drifters, truckers and runaways, then shaped them into first-person monologues that keep the rhythm of speech. A first version circulated as a photocopied zine in 1978; Aloes Books in London published this edition of 500 in 1982, edited by Max Blagg and introduced by William S. Burroughs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe voices of the road and the waterfront return in everything Wojnarowicz made afterwards, from the paintings to Close to the Knives.
