Magazine / Periodical First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. This is the first issue of "The Gettysburg Review", a literary journal devoted to literature, commentary, and art. It presents a stellar array of renowned and top-notch authors (see below), and reproductions in miniature of the stunning artwork of John Winship. Of special interest is the inclusion of work by Black poet Rita Dove. Such perceptive inclusion is likely that one reason this small literary journal has continued to be top-rate is its panel of editors, which include Donald Barthelme, Rita Dove, Garrison Keillor, Ann Beattie, Robert Penn Warren, and Richard Wilbur, among others. In this Winter 1988 issue are the following contributions: GRAPHICS 9 Paintings by John Winship ESSAYS AND ESSAY-REVIEWS Cinema of/as Atrocity: Shoah's Guilty Conscience . by Steven G.
