About this Item

First edition. 118 pp. A beautiful copy, fine in a fine jacket. Winner of the first Neglected Masters Award from the Poetry Foundation, Menashe, whom Dana Gioia has called "a serious poet of singular talent, power, and originality," received acclaim later in life after many years of unjust neglect. Warmly inscribed by Menashe to Koki Iwamoto in 1976. William (Koki) Iwamoto was the proprietor of Chatterton's, a bookshop in the Los Feliz section of Los Angeles, and had also worked at Papa Bach, the legendary southern California bookstore, cultural center, publisher, and meeting-place.
