[6] pp. English versions by Bly of the great nineteenth-century Japanese poet Issa, published in a very small edition as a gift. Inscribed by Bly to Teo Savory and Alan Brilliant of the Unicorn Press, who published Bly often through the late sixties and early seventies; a nice association. A little rumpled at the corners, otherwise very good. 24mo. Seller Inventory # 1049
