Soft Cover. Condition: Fine. First Printing. "Hamill, poet and principal editor of the prestigious Copper Canyon Press, has assembled a remarkable retrospective of the many labors of his little company. The list of poets offered here is almost staggering in its variety: Nobel Prize winners (Pablo Neruda and Odysseus Elytis); prominent American poets (Hayden Carruth, John Haines, W.S. Merwin, Carolyn Kizer, and James Laughlin); poets in translation (Jean Joubert, O.V. de L. Milosz, Sandor Csoori, and Su Tung-p'o); and poets beginning to come into their own (Eleanor Wilner, Shirley Kaufman, Timothy Liu, and Richard Jones). Hamill's taste, as reflected in these choices, honors a certain humility, an earthiness, in poetry. Hamill's introduction sketches the recent history of American poetry, of which Copper Canyon has been an important part; his notes are warmly percipient appreciations of the poets his press has fostered. This anthology will appeal strongly to all readers of contemporary poetry; highly recommended." Bright and fine condition with no markings.
