| Description: | Select Guide Rating The Waterfront Journals is a road trip through the sensuous, perilous landscape of alternative America – a series of fictional monologues that ventriloquise the real people Wojnarowicz met on his travels while he was sleeping rough. From the author of Close to the Knives, a series of fictional monologues that create a visceral and carnivalesque mosaic of life at the fringes of late-80s America. The Waterfront Journals is a collection of monologues, each ventriloquising one of the many people whom Wojnarowicz met on his travels throughout America while he was sleeping rough. We meet these down and outs in unassuming locations - in truck stops, bus stations and parks - and taken together their voices form a poignant chorus that distils the desires, dreams and dangers of those people whose lives confined are to the margins. |
