    Summary

    In their sixth week in Cairo, Louis looks over at Armand from the other side of the bed and frowns in the way that is becoming familiar, as if resurfacing from a dream and struggling to figure out where he’s woken up.
    “What were you doing? While I was dying?”

    24 items (more or less) from the A.M. collection, spanning 1974 to 1985 (more or less). Presented with their accompanying manuscript.
