Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. Book is as new in every respect: creaseless covers and spine, binding is solid and square, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. 87 pages. This ed. limitied to 1/1000 copies, cover art by Ken Tisa. Smells slightly of Nag Champa incense. Kenward Elmslie's poetry and prose is oft…en combined with the graphical work of other artists. A collection of his writing, Motor Disturbance (1971), won the Frank O'Hara Award for Poetry in 1971. He was awarded the National Endowment of the Arts Award for Power Plant Sestina (1967) and the Ford Foundation Grant. In 1973 Elmslie began work as editor and publisher of Z Magazine and Z Press, working to promote the work of other New York School artists such as John Ashbery, Ron Padgett, James Schuyler, and perhaps most extensively, Ken Tisa. Elmslie's work with graphic artists such as Brainard combined poetry with art to emphasize their interconnectedness; his work in theatre demonstrates his commitment to art as a whole, not only to one medium. Keywords: Pulitzer, Grass Harp, Lola, Motor Disturbance, Power Plant Sestina, Z Magazine, Z Press, John Ashbery, Ron Padgett, James Schuyler, Joe Brainard, Circus Nerves, Tropicalism, Orchid Stories, Blast from the Past, Moving Right Along, Bare Bones. Tisa, Ken (illustrator).

One of Elmslie's personal copies of this later collection, with holograph notes in black pen made within indicating his own selections for giving a public reading of certain of these poems ("Fifties Probe" is bracketed into more succinct selections, and "26 I Remembers of Frank O'Hara" becomes thirteen). Whether or not this read…ing was ever given, or this copy used, is not ascertainable, but this practice was evidently Elmslie's customary one given other copies we have handled from his estate. Mildly worn from handling and wear; Very Good. Perfect-bound octavo in glossy illustrated wraps. 87pp. Front and back cover portraits by Ken Tisa (illustrator).

Condition: Very good. Kenward's reading copy with annotations in Elmslie's hand and tipped-in slips sequencing a reading order. We suspect this copy was used in preparation for a reading with Bill Berkson at the St. Marks Poetry Project on October 17, 2001. The most heavily annotated work in the book is "Fifties Probe," which El…mslie in a letter written earlier that month to Lucia Berlin references as the centerpiece of his reading, calling it "my Ashbery Roast cut a tad" (Livingston, Love, Loosha, p. 171). Perfect-bound in glossy pictorial wraps, 8vo, 87 pp. Front and back cover portraits by Ken Tisa (illustrator).
