ACKER, Kathy. I Dreamt I Became a Nymphomaniac! :Imagining. San Francisco: Empty Elevator Shaft Poetry Press / musicmusic Corporation. 1974.

Six vols, 8vo. Original white and cream wrappers, stapled as issued, front covers lettered in purple (vol. I) and black (vols III–VI), front cover of vol. II blank; housed in a custom-made grey card box; continuous pagination throughout, vol. I entirely printed in purple; some light wear to covers, slight spotting to top edge of text block in vols V and VI; near fine.

First edition, a particularly attractive copy, of Acker’s second published novel, issued in six separate parts in limited numbers.

A central figure in the New York literary avant-garde of the 1970s, Kathy Acker developed a transgressive feminist voice that challenged conventional narrative forms. I Dreamt I Became a Nymphomaniac!, loosely based on her own experiences, employs her characteristic fragmentary prose to explore the desires and inner life of its first-person narrator.

The work was first issued in 1974 in six separate volumes, and appeared in a single-volume edition in 1980. Only the first two volumes are explicitly attributed to Acker: the third is credited on the front cover to the composer and experimental musician Peter Gordon (whom she married in 1978), while the back cover bears the copyright name “The Black Tarantula”, one of her pseudonyms.

Dog approved.
Size: X-Large, Color: Cheese
I’m a 70 lbs Goldendoodle (supposed to be 65, don’t ask) and I love cheese. Real cheese. Sharp cheddar with sourdough bread is my dream, but apparently I’m “on a health journey,” so my people bought me this instead. Does this bone actually taste like cheese? No. I am not fooled. Do I still enjoy chewing it loudly while my humans are trying to watch TV? Absolutely yes. This bone satisfies my need to chew and my emotional desire for cheese-adjacent activities. It keeps me busy, saves the furniture, and lets me crunch dramatically during important dialogue scenes. The yellow color is nice — very cheese-coded — although some cheeses are white, so just something to consider for future versions. Also, good news: it doesn’t smell like cheese at all, which my humans seem very grateful for. Apparently they don’t want the carpet to smell like a deli. Weird. Final verdict: Not cheese. Still enjoyable. Would chew again. ~Barley

Withstands big dog
Color: Green Cactus
As a dog mom to two active pups, I’ve gone through a LOT of chew toys over the years and honestly, many of them just didn’t hold up. Some cracked, broke apart quickly, or became rough after only a short time of chewing. That’s why I was genuinely impressed with the MewaJump chew toy. Both of my dogs immediately loved it, and what stood out most to me was how durable it’s been compared to other toys we’ve tried. It’s held up really well with aggressive chewing while still seeming safe and comfortable for them to use. I also love that it keeps them entertained and engaged longer without constantly worrying about pieces breaking off. Definitely one of the better dog toys we’ve added to our home lately and Molly and Piper would agree.

Not recommended for strong chewers.
Color: Green Cactus
There was nothing wrong with this. But my dog is an absolute destroyer. She makes it her personal mission to annihilate any toy I buy. This did not last 30 minutes. Very cute and good for normal dogs that like to actually have toys to play with. Do not recommend for strong jaw destroyers.

Durable for light to medium chewers - not heavy
Color: Green Cactus
obviously cute. not super durable - lasted a good minute but disintegrates fairly quickly and eventually nothing was left - having to high monitor with a big chewer. (10 mo Great Dane)
