After High Risk achieved cult status, this second collection of fiction, poetry and essays explores mortality, violence, and sex work. High Risk 2 features work from Rebecca Brown, Michael Blumlein, Diamanda Galás, Craig G. Harris, and more. Harris’ essay narrates his own decline from AIDS, Blumlein’s short fiction documents the spiritual morbidity of a writer forced to sell his body parts to survive, and Galás’ chantlike poems suggest prayer—neither for miracles nor heaven, but for silence and mercy until the end.
