<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Artwork by Joe Brainard. Edited by Ron Padgett.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Joe Brainard's <i>I Remember</i> is a literary and artistic cult classic, praised and admired by writers from Paul Auster to John Ashery and Edmund White. As autobiography, Brainard's method was brilliantly simple: to set down specific memories as they rose to the surface of his consciousness, each prefaced by the refrain I remember: I remember when I thought that if you did anything bad, policemen would put you in jail. Brainard's enduring gem of a book has been issued in various forms over the past thirty years. In 1970, Angel Hair books published the first edition of <i>I Remember</i>, which quickly sold out; he wrote two subsequent volumes for Angel Hair, <i>More I Remember</i> (1972) and <i>More I Remember More</i> (1973), both of which proved as popular as the original. In 1973, the Museum of Modern Art in New York published Brainard's <i>I Remember Christmas</i>, a new text for which he also contributed a cover design and four drawings. Excerpts from the Angel Hair editions appeared in <i>Interview</i>, <i>Gay Sunshine</i>, <i>The World</i> and the <i>New York Herald</i>. Then in 1975, Full Court Press issued a revised version collecting all three of the Angel Hair volumes and added new material, using the original title <i>I Remember</i>. This complete edition is prefaced by poet and translator Ron Padgett.
