Tell Me About Yourself

En savoir plus sur le livre

In Tell Me About Yourself, an old man looks back on his time in the East Village in the mid-1970s when he drew pictures of people, mostly tenants in his apartment building, and made the eponymous request to them. The resultant twelve drawings matched with the brief responses make up the greater part of this funny and melancholic work. The drawings, rendered in the men's room graffiti style, and a rudimentary version of the responses actually were created about fifty years ago.
