About This Item

New York: Nalanda University Press, 1980. Very good. [New York]: Nalanda University Press, [1980]. First Edition, Limited to 250 copies. Quarto (28cm.); two volumes bound dos-a-dos; publisher's white staple bound card wrappers illustrated by Alice Notley; text printed from typescript on rectos only. Margins a bit rubbed and toned, faint crease across cover of "Slow Waltz" else a Very Good example.

Uncommon and substantial collection by the New York School poet published under the auspices of the Poetry Project. "Slow Waltz" opens with a tongue-in-cheek introductory explanation of the dos-a-dos binding, citing John Carter's "ABC for Book Collectors," which begins "The twin volumes are usually two small service books or works of piety." Savage promises "These books are neither 'small service' nor 'works of piety.' I understand that a similar binding practice has been utilized for certain detective novels.
