Item description from seller

8vo, 53pp; wrappers, stapled. This play, written by Cluchey while he was serving a term in San Quentin Prison,and published here five years after his release, was the inaugural -- and apparently only --publication of Barbwire Press, dedicated to literary work produced behind bars. The author won early release owing in large part to his literary promise and founding of the San Quentin Drama Workshop. He came to the attention of Samuel Beckett, who championed Cluchey and later featured him in some productions of his plays. Boldly inscribed and signed by Cluchey on the first leaf. Bit of offsetting to rear wrapper; fine.
