About This Item
New York: Grove Press, 1960. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. Octavo. 454 pp. First edition. Perhaps the most noteworthy and influential poetry anthology of the last seventy-five years. Donald Allen brought together the works of many little known poets of the time in one place, many of whom had only been published in small press magazines. A sound very good copy in black cloth binding in about very good unclipped dustwrapper with light fade to spine color and somestains and wear, especially at the spine. A decent copy of an important book. To its credit, this book has never gone out of print.
