Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. The First UK printing published by Faber London in 1989. This is the hardback edition and was only issued in a small print run. There was also a wraps edition issued simultaneously. The BOOK is in near Fine condition with just a hint of toning to the text-block and extreme page edges. The WRAPPER is complete and is in near Fine condition with just a little edge-wear with light rubbing at the spine ends and corners. The wrapper is protected in a removable Brodart archival cover. The book has been warmly inscribed by the author to the front end-paper, to this daughter Frieda and Clive (her husband at that time) : 'For Frieda and Clive, with love Daddy, 9th October 1989'. 'Wolfwatching occupies a curious place in Ted Hughes's poetry. Uniquely among his later books, Wolfwatching forms no single sequence or structure, and its mixture of closely observed nature poems ('Macaw', 'The Black Rhino') and harrowed fixations on the First World War ('Source', 'For the Duration'), glued together with reaching metaphysical enquiries ('Astrological Conundrums', 'Take What You Want But Pay For It') recalls the loose structures of his earliest books. What 'Wolfwatching' might lack in topical unity, however, it more than makes up for in its tonal unity, as poem after poem dramatises dissipation and waste, whether the post-war torpor of Calder Valley residents, or the titular wolf, watched in its cage in a London zooery' (David Troupes, The Ted Hughes Society 2021). Very scarce with such attributes. More images available on request. Ashton Rare Books welcomes direct contact. Inscribed by Author(s).

First Edition
First edition. Original black boards in dustwrapper. The dedication copy, inscribed by the author to his aunt, Hilda Farrar, "For Hilda with love from Ted 18 August 1989". Further inscribed on the dedication leaf, under the printed, "For Hilda", "with love from Ted". With a covering letter from Hughes to Hilda. A near fine copy in a near fine dustwrapper, with a touch of wear to the corners. Ted Hughes grew up as part of a close and supportive family in Mytholmroyd. His mother Edith's large family all lived near by, with her sister Hilda only a few doors down from the Hughes family home on Aspinall Street. "Crossley [a childhood friend] remembers Ted's very close relationship with his aunt Hilda, which endured throughout Hughes's life; in the aftermath of Sylvia Plath's suicide in 1963, Hilda played a key role supporting Hughes in looking after his children Nicholas and Frieda, and became a frequent visitor to Ted and his second wife Carol at their Devon home. This closeness is further demonstrated by the fact that when Hughes visited the Upper Calder Valley in adulthood, he would usually stay with Hilda. almost a 'second mother' to him." - Steve Ely (Ted Hughes's South Yorkshire) Wolfwatching contains a number of poems relating to family members. The poignant Sacrifice relates to his uncle Albert's struggles in life. For The Duration pieces together his father's part in WW1 and Walt relates to his uncle Walter. In the letter, Ted comments, "Here's our book. I hope you're not too shocked by the piece titled Sacrifice. My idea was to commemorate Albert's frustrated existence, not Minnie's [Albert's wife]. I've been trying to ring Gerald [Ted's brother] - no answer. That was a very satisfying, amusing evening we had. Think of coming down. and we will have one or two return matches. We're going out with Carol's sister + brother. supposedly belatedly a birthday party for me. Robert will probably show movie films - a very funny one of Nicky when he was about 12.".
