Winner of the 2008 Lambda Literary Award for Best Women's
Memoir
Award-winning author Nicola Griffith tells her life story up
until the time she moved from England to the U.S. This is no ordinary memoir.
Nicola is candid and unflinching in telling the ups and downs of her youth.
Drugs, sex, and rock 'n' roll are just the beginning. To commemorate this
extraordinary work, Payseur & Schmidt is issuing a boxed set that includes
the memoir bound in five volumes (including diary entries, photographs, poetry,
and early fiction). The box also contains a facsimile of Nicola's first book
(created age 4), a CD of songs by Nicola and her early-'80s punk band, Janes
Plane, as well as three scratch-n-sniff cards, a fold-out poster, a
letterpressed preface by Dorothy Allison, and a numbered signing sheet.
