Incorporating everything from the autobiography of William Butler Yeats to Justine: Philosophy in the Bedroom by the Marquis de Sade to her own writings, Acker introduces a radical and remarkable voice in this series of six booklets produced from 1973 to 1976. These booklets are precursors to Acker’s first book, The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula.

This set of six booklets includes:

The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula #1

The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula #2

The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula #3

The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula #4

The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula #5

The Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula #6
