About This Item
London: Michael Dempsey : distributed by Studio Vista, 1975. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. First Printing of the First Edition. Fine but for a small spot stain on title page, in price-clipped jacket with a small stain at top edge of back panel, and just the slightest sunning to spine..
Synopsis
If-and the thing is wildly possible-the charge of writing nonsense were ever brought against the author of this brief but instructive poem, it would be based, I feel convinced, on the line (in p.4)
