Inside front/back cover:
“Lies! Lies! Valerie Solanas.” This is a reproduction of Valerie Solanas’s handwriting on the 1971 copy of SCUM Manifesto housed in the collection at the New York Public Library. To sabotage the Olympia Press edition of SCUM and to protest unauthorized changes to her manifesto, she marked up her book with her own graffiti. For the full story, see Chapter 5.
