First Edition Signed
This book was inscribed by James P. Lenfestey to Jazz writer, Ira Gitler and his wife Mary Jo. "For Ira and Mary Jo - who hold me world together with art, music and hockey! James P. Lenfestey." --> This item is from the collection of Ira Gitler, influential jazz critic and historian. Mr. Gitler's criticism appeared regularly in publications like "DownBeat" and "JazzTimes." He wrote two books about bebop. He wrote several books on jazz including multiple editions of "The Encyclopedia of Jazz." Along with Leonard Feather and Nat Hentoff, Ira Gitler was among the most prodigious writers of liner notes, annotating more than 700 albums. In 2017, he was named a Jazz Master by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA). In 1974, author James P. Lenfestey came upon the book Cold Mountain: 100 Poems of the T'ang Dynasty Poet Han-Shan, translated by Burton Watson, and it cured his warts. It also turned out to be the voice he had "missed" all his life. For the first and only time in his writing life, Lenfestey began to "write back" to another author. The result thirty-three years later is this collection of one hundred poems, inspired by the form and sensibility of that 1,200-year-old Chinese hermit, yet brimming with Lenfestey's own humor, wisdom, insight, and delight in language. First edition. A few scratches on the cover but pages are crisp and in perfect condition. Comes from a smoke-free and pet-free environment. Every item is packaged by hand and handled with care.
