About This Item

Hanover, New Hampshire: Wesleyan University Press/ University Press of New England, (1990). First edition (softcover issue, simultaneous with the hardcover), this copy inscribed & signed by Dickey in ink at the half-title page. Octavo (9" x 7"), 66 & [1] pages. Publisher's pictorial card covers.

Brief wear & shallow creasing at corners, otherwise very good.

A title in the Wesleyan Poetry series & the last book by Dickey published in his lifetime. Features poignant poetry from the eighteenth United States Poet Laureate & author of Deliverance.

"- to Jules/ from Jim -/ at the beginning -/ from/ James Dickey/ (also!).

"Jules" is almost certainly Jules Bacon, a bodybuilder & Mr. America of 1943, who was nominally the subject of an unfinished poem by Dickey entitled "For Jules Bacon."
