Condition: Very good plus. First printing. Ron Silliman's copy of his friend Larry Eigner's verse collection, first edition with Silliman's ownership stamp. "When I started gathering poetry for a journal that would become TOTTEL'S in 1969, [Eigner] was one of the first writers whose work I solicited," Ron Silliman would write of his friend Larry Eigner. Silliman would go on to include Eigner in his groundbreaking anthology IN THE AMERICAN TREE, and dedicated one of his best-known poems, "For Larry Eigner, Silent" - which first appeared in 2002's BEST AMERICAN POETRY (and was later included in THE ALPHABET) - to the poet. Upon its publication in 2010, Silliman would call THE COLLECTED POEMS OF LARRY EIGNER "the most powerful & substantial book of this millennium." A nice association between these two giants of L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poetry. 10'' x 7''. Publisher's original printed wrappers. One of 400 unnumbered copies. 72 pages.
