Price: US$75.00 + shipping
Description: 125pp. Stiff pictorial wraps Light wear to the tips, otherwise a fine, unmarked copy. Intro. by Allen Ginsberg, who has signed and inscribed it on the last introduction page, "Allen Ginsberg 1980, Feb.1, for Joe Blake". " From the "Confrontation With Louis Ginsberg's Poems" by his son Allen Ginsburg, in the introduction to this book,."Living a generation with lyrics wrought by my father, some stanzas settle in memory as perfected. I won't quarrel with his forms here anymore: by faithful love he's made them his own, and by many years practice arrived at sufficient condensation of idea, freedom of fancy, phrase modernity, depth of death-vision, and clarity of particular contemporary attention to transform the old "lyric" form from an inverted fantasy to the deeper actualization of his peaceful mortal voice."
