(Date of this printing is not stated - I estimate that this is likely a printing done in the 1990s) EDITION : Reprint . This is the 29th NDP Printing DETAILS : Trade paperback; contains the author's prefatory Note; [x] + 81 pages, plus 2 pages of publisher's list; 5 1/8" x 8" ; photo-pictorial wraps, glued. From the cover blurb : "The Wisdom of the Desert" was one of Thomas Merton's favorites among his own books- surely because he had hoped to spend his last years as a hermit. The personal tone of the translations, the blend of reverence and humor so characteristic of him, show how deeply Merton identified with the legendary authors of these sayings and parable, the fourth century Christian fathers who sought solitude and contemplation in the deserts of the Near East." CONDITION -- NEAR FINE -- Very mild surface rub - no crease to spine. Interior has one creased leaf, else the interior is clean and free of marking. An exceptional copy. ______________________________________________________________________________ TITLE : Selected Poems of Thomas Merton - Enlarged Edition AUTHOR : Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968) INTRODUCTION : Mark Van Doran (1894 - 1972) IMPRINT : New Directions Paperbook (# 85) PLACE : New York DATE : First published by New Directions in 1959 - (Date of this printing not stated, but I estimate that this is likely a printing done in the 1990s) EDITION : Enlarged Edition - This is the 18th NDP Printing DETAILS : Trade paperback; contains an Introduction; [xvii] + 140 pages, plus 2 pages of publisher's list; 5 1/8" x 8" ; photo-pictorial wraps, glued. From the cover blurb : "For this enlarged edition, Father Merton added seventeen poems from 'Emblems of a Season of Fury'. The poems from earlier books . are for the most part lyrical and devotional, but the group from 'Emblems' shows the poet's increasing engagement with life outside the monastery and his strong concern for modern social issues. This volume offers a more representative sampling of the work of a prominent Catholic poet, and one of the most vital American poets of the Twentieth Century." CONDITION -- NEAR FINE -- Very mild surface rub - no crease to spine. Interior is clean and free of marking. An exceptional copy.
