Book First Edition Signed
Condition: Fine in fine dust jacket. Signed first edition, a review copy, of this collection of poetry that was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, the National Book Award, and the National Book Critics Circle Award. Gilbert's social proximity to Beat greats Ginsberg and Spicer may imply an associated stylistic proximity, but Gilbert wrote through a more traditional lineage. In this collection, revised poems from his first work, the critically-acclaimed 1962 VIEWS OF JEOPARDY, are presented alongside new poems after twenty years of public silence. "Steeped in shadowy grammar and ornately wrought lines," the "treasure-chest style" (Knapp) of MONOLITHOS earned it the Stanley Kunitz Prize and the American Poetry Review Prize, as well as nominations for all three major American book awards. 8.25'' x 5.25''. Original black cloth with silver and blind lettering. Original unclipped ($11.50) pictorial dust jacket, designed by James Laughlin. Top edge stained blue. 94 pages. Signed by Gilbert to title page. Review copy with original review slip laid in. Mild toning to rear of jacket. A sharp, clean copy.

First edition, first printing, elaborately inscribed by the author on the title page, "For Mark, with affection, Jack Gilbert, 1992". Monolithos was Gilbert's second poetry collection, published 20 years after his first, Views of Jeopardy, which was published as the winner of the annual Yale Younger Poets prize and subsequently nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Jack Gilbert (1925-2012), though never a household name, is well respected as a poet's poet, thrice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. His early promise was followed by years of travel (funded by a Guggenheim fellowship), solitude, and poverty, punctuated only by occasional publications, the majority heralded with further prizes. He shunned publicity however, living in what he termed "a self-imposed isolation", dedicating himself to writing and romance. Due to this solitude inscribed copies of his work are notably uncommon. After his death in 2012 he was again nominated for the Pulitzer, with his recently published Collected Poems. Linda Gregg, one of his lovers and a fellow poet, characterised Gilbert thus: "All Jack ever wanted to know was that he was awake - that the trees in bloom were almond trees - and to walk down the road to get breakfast. He never cared if he was poor or had to sleep on a park bench". Octavo. Original black cloth, titles in silver to spine and black to front board, top edge blue. With dust jacket. Slightest rubbing to board edges, a fine copy in the like jacket, unclipped.
