All three volumes are well bound and clean. Issue three is lightly bumped at the upper right corner throughout the book, but still remains a quality copy. All from the home of a tobacco smoker, so there is a faint aroma as well as some minor toning along the edges of extremities. Interior pages are clean, although somewhat toned by age, particularly issues 2 and 3 (issue three seeming of generally lesser quality of production. Still a nice set, all now covered in mylar.

Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Four volumes of the venerable literary quarterly Yugen (1958-1962), edited by LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka and then-partner Hettie Cohen. Published through Baraka's own Totem Press, the journal brought together work by figures from the Beat Generation, the Black Mountain School, the New York School, and international literary modernism. The quarterly took for its namesake the Japanese aesthetic concept translating roughly to mysterious, graceful profundity. With contributions from William Carlos Williams, Allen Ginsberg, David Meltzer, Paul Blackburn, Philip Whalen, Diane Di Prima, John Wieners, Michael McClure, Fielding Dawson, Frank O'Hara, Cesar Vallejo, Jack Kerouac, Gregory Corso, Robin Blaser, Ed Dorn, Ray Bremser, Robert Creeley, Tristan Tzara, Gary Snyder, Kenneth Koch, Baraka, Gilbert Sorrentino, John Ashbery, Charles Olson, Peter Orlovsky, and many others. All 5.5" x 8.5" softcover books, saddle-stapled in card wraps, with occasional b/w illustrations. Books from the collection of a tobacco smoker, with attendant if subtle tanning mainly to spines. Shelfwear to all rather mild: some modest rubbing to covers / mild edgewear. Bindings all sound, with crisp, quite bright unmarked pages. Each journal is now in a custom cut mylar dustjacket. Issue 4 is particularly scarce. Very handsome examples.

Winter 1962 double issue of Locus Solus, dedicated to new poetry, signed by issue editor John Ashbery and five other contributors: Kenward Elmslie, LeRoi Jones (as Amiri Baraka), Kenneth Koch, Daniel Krakauer, and Larry Rivers. Other contributors include Diane Di Prima, Barbara Guest, Gerard Malanga, James Merrill, and Frank O'Hara. Published in France, but really produced below 14th Street in Manhattan, Locus Solus had an outsized impact on American poetry during its two-year run: "Each squat and plain issue looked like the serious literature of the French, a toned-down Gallimard volume perhaps" (Clay and Phillips, A Secret Location on the Lower East Side). A very good example, signed by six New York poets. Small octavo, measuring 7.25 x 4.75 inches: 294, [2]. Original blue printed wrappers. Signed by John Ashbery, Kenward Elmslie, LeRoi Jones (as Amiri Baraka, dated 1978), Kenneth Koch, Daniel Krakauer (inscribed "To Richard"), and Larry Rivers at their contributions. Wrappers sunned, lightest edgewear, a few scattered stains to top edge.
