Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "The Improved Binoculars", published in 1956 by Jonathan Williams' Jargon Press, was the first of Layton's collections to be widely published in North America. Ryerson Press, the book's Canadian distributor, refused to distribute the book (or even release it to the author) because of its "co…ntroversial" content. It is telling that Layton, whom we now regard as the author of some of the finest poems in Canadian history, found a warmer reception at first in the United States than he did in his own country. Layton's early backers included Robert Creeley and William Carlos Williams, who provided a warm (but condescending - he refers to Layton, a Montrealer, as a "backwoodsman") forward for "The Improved Binoculars." Inlcudes 87 poems that are selected from the eight volumes which the poet published in the first ten years of his career. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
