Oblong small 8vo, original string-tied unprinted stiff wrappers, marbled outer wrapper, printed paper label. Housed in a custom green cloth clamshell box with a black morocco spine label. Housed in a custom green cloth clamshell box with a black morocco spine label First edition, one of the author's copies from the lettered issue. Copy "L" (presumably chosen for "Loren") of 26 lettered copies (out of a total edition of 126) signed by Bishop on the colophon. This copy bears Bishop's presentation inscription: "For Loren MacIver & Lloyd Frankenberg - love, Elizabeth Bishop" on the title-page. Laid in is an exceptionally interesting TLS from Bishop to MacIver and Frankenberg concerning the publication of Poem: "I've always disliked â pretty little books' like this - However, Bill Ferguson, the printer, is a friend of mine here & he wanted to do it for some time & so I finally gave in. (The Phoenix Book Shop man is quite another type.) And since they have just arrived, or were here when I got back - I'm sending you one of my copies with a real, EXTRA signature - whee! You can sell it for a small sum if need be sometime - Love, Elizabeth". The artist Loren MacIver was a longtime friend and correspondent of Bishop's and contributed the dust jacket design for Bishop's second collection, Poems North & South - A Cold Spring, in 1955. Their friendship dates from as early as 1938, at which time Bishop was writing to Marianne Moore from MacIver's Provincetown summer home. The poet and literary critic Lloyd Frankenberg, who married MacIver in 1929, wrote critical studies of Bishop 1946 and 1949 which are among the earliest appraisals of Bishop's work. A superb association copy. Important association copies of Bishop's books are rare; this is one of the very few we have seen or handled.

First edition, first printing, review copy with the publisher's compliments slip laid-in, inscribed by the author on the title page to fellow poet Elizabeth McFarland, "For Liz Hoffman - love - from Elizabeth Bishop, Nov. 11th 1979", with one sheet of hand-corrected typed notes by the poet Daniel Hoffman, husband of McFarland, introducing a reading by Bishop at the University of Pennsylvania. Elizabeth McFarland (1922-2005) was poetry editor of Ladies' Home Journal from 1948-1962, and an instrumental figure in broadening the influence of eminent poets like W. H. Auden, Marianne Moore, Richard Eberhart, and Walter de la Mare, and popularizing promising upcomers like Maxine Kumin, Sylvia Plath, Adrienne Rich, William Stafford, and John Updike. Daniel (1923-2013) called his wife a "one-woman Guggenheim Foundation" as she fought for fair pay for poets. Together they were a formidable poetic pairing: he was the 22nd Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress, a much decorated author of nine books of poetry, and the Felix E. Schelling Professor of English at the University of Pennsylvania. Bishop was invited to the university in 1979 to award a number of annual poetry prizes, including the Ellis Ames Ballard memorial prize, and give a reading of her own work. Daniel's introduction refers to this, "her most recent book", and praises Bishop's career: "there is no prize of honor for a poet in this country which has not been given to Elizabeth Bishop. when we read [her] poems we feel as does the old fisherman in her poem 'At the Fishhouses', dipping his hand into the sea". Bishop has misdated her inscription: she died on 6 October 1979 of a stroke. Dan Hoffman, "Elizabeth McFarland, a Poet Who Brought Poetry to the Millions", Poetry Society, available online. Octavo. Original brown cloth, spine lettered in gilt, tan endpapers. With dust jacket. Illustrated title page. Loosely inserted are two newspaper clippings, one a review of Geography III, the other an obituary of Bishop. Trivial scratch to rear cover, front inner hinge just starting. A near-fine copy in fine jacket.

First edition, first printing, presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, with her printed name struck through, "Elizabeth Bishop's [Questions of Travel] that were much alleviated by the kindness of friends in Seattle, including Jean Russell. April 24th, 1966", and with three corrections in Bishop's hand (on pp. 16, 40, and 95). The recipient was a noted Seattle art collector and patron, whom Bishop met while teaching in Seattle in early 1966. The two took a day trip to Lummi Island, together with the palaeontologist Wesley Wehr. It was during her time in Seattle that Bishop began her affair with Roxanne Cummings, which partly contributed to the breakdown of her relationship with Lota. Questions of Travel is Bishop's third collection and includes poems based on her experiences living in Brazil, notably "The Armadillo" and "Sestina". It is also her first collection to include a short story, "In the Village". Octavo. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in purple, silver, and green, green endpapers, top edge pink. With dust jacket, designed by Adrianne Onderdonk. A couple of tiny nicks to foot of spine, cloth lightly rubbed at extremities; jacket lightly rubbed, a few tiny marks and nicks, one small chip to head of spine, light crease to rear flap, unclipped: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.

Rothchild, Judith (illustrator). Oblong quarto. (15)ff. From an edition of fifty copies, this is one of ten deluxe copies, which include an original copper plate and an additional mezzotint. Signed by the artist and by the printer, Mark Lintott, at the colophon. Rothchild's illustrations-two mezzotints, one of which has been broken up into eight fragments-communicate the pensive darkness of the writer's desk, laying it, as Bishop does poetically, before the reader in pieces and as a whole. Bishop's poem was originally published in Geography III in 1976. Her verses address the elements of her writing desk as if they were news events, as if they were soldiers on a battlefield or secret weapons or natural disasters. Her matter-of-fact tone and obsessive analysis of the trivial-the stack of papers, the typewriter, the inkwell-reflects a larger anxiety with the state of the world and with the way that world appears on the "real" news. Bishop questions, with no hint of forthcoming answers, how to live in a world in peril on all sides, and in a world whose peril is constantly and dramatically obvious at any moment of media consumption. Whether that danger is true, in the manner of unbiased journalism, or false, in the manner of hyperbolic artistic or political posturing, is all the more reason to worry. The present edition pairs Bishop's poem with Colin Powell's 2003 speech to the U.N. Security Council, in which Powell presented alleged evidence of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. The United States would invade Iraq only weeks later and find that there were, in fact and despite Powell's emphatic determination to the contrary, no such weapons. Book stab-bound, and together with additional mezzotint and copper plate, held in drop-back box. A fine examination of the manipulation of facts and the exhaustion of living in a world seemingly always in danger.

Hardcover. First Edition. Preface by Allen Tate. Elizabeth Bishop's copy SIGNED by her on the front endpaper. In a letter to Robert Lowell dated 27 June 1950 Bishop writes of THIS book: "I spent most of the weekend reading Samuel Greenberg--have you? I got so mad at the introductions, particularly Tate's--and if you haven't read the poems I recommend them highly. He was certainly one of the finest poetic characters I know anything about, and phrases are magnificent--and no critic has ever apparently appreciated either at their real value" (ONE ART: ELIZABETH BISHOP'S LETTERS, p. 204). In another letter to Robert Lowell dated August 1950, Bishop writes: "I'm reading The 'Green Huntsman' and it's marvelous--also just finished Samuel Greenberg and Isaac Rosenberg who have many strange points in common" (WORDS IN AIR: THE COMPLETE CORRESPONDENCE OF ELIZABETH BISHOP AND ROBERT LOWELL). Clearly even two months later this book was still in the forefront of Bishop's mind. While we have handled several copies of Bishop's books signed by her as well as correspondence, this is the first book from the poet's library that we have encountered. It appears, also, to be a book that had some influence on Bishop's development as a poet. Greenberg was also a huge influence on the poet Hart Crane, who first read Greenberg in manuscript. Crane was so taken by Greenberg, he lifted entire lines for his own poems. The cloth was damaged by water at some point with the result that it is discolored. There is only slight water damage to the dustwrapper. Still Very Good in a Very Good dustwrapper.
