About This Item

Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1952. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. First edition. Octavo. 407pp. Blue and black cloth. Front flyleaf has light creasing at lower corner, else a near fine copy in very good dust jacket and publisher's wrap-around band, announcing that this title has was the National Book Award for 1953 for Poetry. The jacket is sunned at the extremities as usual with small nicks at tips of spine, and at extremities of front panel, few short tears on front and rear panel, else quite bright. This title won the Pulitzer Prize, the Bollingen Prize, and the National Book Award. An elusive title in dust jacket, especially with the wrap-around band.
