Description: A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Lunch Poems, first published in 1964 by City Lights Books as number ninetee n in the Pocket Poets series, is widely considered to be Frank O'Hara's fre shest and most accomplished collection of poetry. Edited by the poet in collaboration with Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Donald A llen, who had published O'Hara's poems in his monumental The New American P oetry in 1960, it contains some of the poet's best known works including "T he Day Lady Died," "Ave Maria," and "Poem" [Lana Turner has collapsed!]. Th ese are the compelling and formally inventive poems casually composed, for example, in his office at The Museum of Modern Art, in the street at luncht ime or on the Staten Island Ferry en route to a poetry reading that made O' Hara a dynamic leader of the New York School of poets. "O'Hara speaks directly across the decades to our hopes and fears and espec ially our delights; his lines are as intimate as a telephone call. Few book s of his era show less age. Dwight Garner, New York Times "As collections go, none brings . . . quality to the fore more than the thi rty-seven Lunch Poems, published in 1964 by City Lights.Nicole Rudick, The Paris Review "What O'Hara is getting at is a sense of the evanescence, and the power, of great art, that inextricable contradiction that what makes it moving and transcendent is precisely our knowledge that it will pass away. This is the ethos at the center of Lunch Poems: not the informal or the conversational for their own sake but rather in the service of.

Few books of his era show less age."---Dwight Garner, New York Times. Pristine paperback w/sharp corners, crisp edges, no marks & no creases in spine.

Condition: Very Good
Description: 16mo. Wrappers. 74pp. The Pocket Poets Series: Number 19, being the 1st printing with no subsequent printings mentioned and the $1.25 price. Just a little spotted to the edges, and only occasionally rubbed to the wrappers, with a tiny split at the tail edge of the upper spine fold, also marked around the spine and to the lower wrapper, less so to the front. The wrappers themselves are cut (in production) just slightly unevenly, so that there is a thin strip of unprinted card at the upper corner (an aesthetic rather than structural point). Generally crisp, however, the text clean, so about Very Good overall, and with the ownership inscription of Tom Raworth.
