Publisher's Synopsis
Harmless Medicine is fiercely devoted to the margins of life in the generation after the devastating first wave of the AIDS epidemic. In more than 40 pieces, Chin fearlessly delivers his thoughts on everything from his first exposure to science, to a mail-order fantasy experience, from backroads travel in Asia, to the plight of immigrants in America. His scathingly brutal honesty and sharply honed-humour frame a collection that is profoundly perceptive throughout and startling in its originality.
