File — Box: 186, Folder: 16
Scope and Contents
The essay in this folder has 5 titles: My Heart Belongs to Nature, A Life in a Nutshell, Goodbye, Monique, A Eulogy for my Funeral, and On Top of Spoon Mountain. The 17 typed pages of my "biography" here are massively hand-corrected. First few pages discuss Monique. File includes 22 pages of hand-written notes about sex, people I've known who've died, my stupid homilies about life, fame, fucking, being 66 years old (so some notes are from 1996), and why dad married my stepmother Brownie Gleason to save me from my French grandmother, Mamita, getting custody of me after Monique died.
