I’m looking for a table of contents for Kathy Acker’s Blood and Guts in High School, Plus Two. Can anybody tell what the “Two” are (or is)? Thanks in advance ...

I pulled this from a review on GR (I hope that's okay since it's a public review):

...This book contains three books - two novels and a short story. Blood & Guts in High Schoolstands out, a perfect masterpiece of Acker's sex, violence and abrupt punk storytelling. It is a wonderful collage of drawings, text, plays, maps, and is an experience outside of reading (culminating in a magnificent dream-wander through the desert for the protagonist and Jean Genet). Great Expectations is cutting, a winding and unpredictable alternative to the Dickens story; My Death, My Life by Pier Paolo Pasolini is sharp-witted and less dark, and includes multiple retelling of the Irish revolution via Macbeth.
