The legendary, bittersweet memoir from the ultimate downtown icon and John Waters muse, Cookie Mueller. Released posthumously by Semiotext(e) just months after her death from AIDS-related complications, Walking Through Clear Water... stands as the definitive, first-hand chronicle of a vanished, chaotic counterculture.
It takes us on a journey through late-twentieth-century Bohemia: from running with a crew of outlaw bikers in Maryland and starring in cult films like Pink Flamingos, to navigating the drug-fueled Lower East Side art scene alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat and Nan Goldin. It is a profoundly moving, funny, and gritty testament to survival, friendship, and living at the absolute edge of American culture.
