Octavo -- (Six & 1/2-inches x Nine & 3/4-inches) First/first (US) in clear mylar jacket. Black cloth with gold lettering on spine. Clean, sound, tightly bound. Gently read. I purchased with this clear mylar jacket, without a paper dustjacket. The catalog discription of this title does not mention a dustjacket. Nevertheless, I do not know if for certain if Classic Rough News is supposed to have a printed paper dustjacket or not.

- Poetry
Classic Rough News follows a skeptical, cosmopolitan, intelligent, poetic presence aware that its carefully constructed veneer could crumble at any moment. In poems that mine interior dialogue for the discovery of great truths, Fields conveys feelings of awkwardness, incompleteness, conflict, and insanity-all in finely crafted verse. Ironic and skeptical, the voice in these poems records the flux of the mind, ruefully acknowledging how easy it is to deceive oneself with mixed emotions. Fully mature and unconcerned about impressions, Classic Rough News is grounded in erudition and humor, revealing how tradition and talent can push one another in unexpected directions.
