A propos de cet article

Softcover in matte pictorial wraps. First edition. Wraps are somewhat worn and scuffed but interior pages are mostly fine (last page has a small tear). Laid in is a SIGNED two-page letter typed on parchment paper that Wakoski wrote to literary agent Irene Skolnick, at the time an editor at The Hudson Review. The letter is Wakoski's response to a letter she received from Skolnick. In it, the poet explains that literary magazines like Hudson Review usually reject her poems but she submits them anyway "just to give [the editors] a chance 'to improve their taste,' if you know what I mean." She also writes about Anthony Hecht and other personal matters. 4to. 56 pp. Also included, the softcover limited edition of Wakoski's 1971 poem, On Barbara's Shore, published as the 100th publication of Black Sparrow Press. Slight edgewear, else fine in sewn blue wrappers.
