Presents James Dickey's "Spinning The Crystal Ball: Some Guesses At The Future of American Poetry". His definitive statement about American poetry, delivered as a Speech at the Library of Congress on April 24, 1967, when he was its Literary Consultant. Best-known as the author of "Deliverance" (1970), a novel of excruciating horror and violence, critics - and James Dickey himself - regard the author as primarily a poet, an American poet specifically (with all that entails), and his transcendent speech is his authentic poetic voice incarnate. An absolute "must-have" title for James Dickey collectors. This copy is very boldly, elaborately, and beautifully signed in green ink-pen on the title page by James Dickey. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. James Dickey's signature on this copy is the most beautiful we have ever seen. This title is a late-modern classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A scarce signed copy thus.
