Title: Wake for the angels
First published: 1994
Description: At times darkly erotic, funny, and brutally sad, these short stories and paintings interweave the colorful palette of language and the vividness of the painted voice. Charting a course from the sadness of childhood through vignettes that look honestly at what women settle for in glamorous Los Angeles, Woronov's runaways, punkers, housewives and bimbos bring us face to face with our own concerns about the future, death, and how to make peace.

Her dark and often disturbing canvases deal figuratively with these same themes in a painterly style that is both immediate and powerful. In this unique combination of extraordinary fiction and paintings from the last fifteen years of her life, Mary Woronov has given us a new and distinct voice.
