Lived through the NYC downtown ’80s? Cyndi Dawson takes you home. And if you were never there, you are now, through the penetrating glare of an "Outside Girl" who brings the reader through the scene, the clubs, the drugs, the grit, and ties it all together with love. With this collection, Cyndi Dawson, who is known largely for her stage performances, establishes herself as fierce, forceful, raw, punk poet
in the tradition of Jim Carroll, who holds her own on the page as well as the stage.
— PUMA PERL, author of KNUCKLE TATTOOS and BELINDA AND HER FRIENDS
