About This Item
New York: Horace Liveright, 1930. First American Edition. Near Fine. First American edition, preceded by the Paris edition published by Black Sun Press. Signed by Hart Crane on the front free endpaper. Bound in publisher's original dark blue cloth ruled in blind, with titles in gilt on spine and upper board. Near Fine with sunning to cloth at spine and edges, a few light scratches to the boards, light loss to corners and spine ends heaviest at the crown. Pages toned and with a few short edge tears to pages. A work that has critics divided to this day, with some claiming it to be Crane's best work and a masterpiece of American Modernism.
