Partial transcript of the statement made by Charles Manson during his 1970 trial, first published in the L.A. Free Press. This version was slightly edited for clarity but not abridged. Numbered, and without binding, this appears to have been a proof or advanced copy of Your Children, perhaps before the publishers even gave the work that title.

The Vanishing Rotating Triangle Press is known for publishing the first two novels of Kathy Acker, as well as works by John Ashbery, Gerard Malanga, and Guy Debord. Founded in 1969, the press folded in 1978.
