[Santa Barbara: Ross-Erikson, 1981. ca. 100 leaves. Small folio (8.5 x 14"). Loose, uncorrected galleys, reproduced in photocopy, with original corrections in ink and others reproduced in photocopy. Editorially used, hence just good, in captioned folder. The set of foul proofs associated with this production, the first English language edition of this work on the influential Mazatec curandera, with a Preface by Rothenberg, a Retrospective Essay by R. Gordon Wasson, and an Introduction by Álvaro Estrada (who is credited with the original Spanish text). The original corrections and revisions are in various hands, including those that would appear to be a proof- reader's. Although not noted in these proofs, the translations were prepared by Henry Munn. The file enclosure credits Rothenberg serving as editor as well as author of the Preface; Polkinhorn records Estrada as the editor. POLKINHORN E8.

Description:
London, United Kingdom: Faber and Faber, 1989 UNCORRECTED ADVANCE PROOF BOUND COPY for the cased and paperback editions (actually copied by Faber from corrected page proofs). Prepublication first edition. [Probable publication date: 18 September 1989.] 55pp. Green soft cover. Clean text pages. "Wolfwatching" was Hughes' 14th collection of poetry - he digs deeply into his own childhood and his family history, as well as writing about nature's violence and the meaning he finds in it. Included in the collection is the poem "The Black Rhino" written for the purpose of raising funds to save this endangered animal. The Library Journal considered reading Wolfwatching was "like visiting a zoo envisioned by Hieronymus Bosch: we're caught between fright and fascination". He was married to the American poet Sylvia Plath until her death in 1963. Ted Hughes is considered one of England's finest modern poets - winning the Whitbread Book of the Year in two…

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1983. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Unrevised, Uncorrected Proofs in plain, mustard-yellow wrappers. Kincaid's first book, a collection of short stories. Uncommon in this format, and in excellent condition other than what was done to it in FSG's mailroom: a small photocopy of the dustjacket copy proof, with ISBN, publication date, and price, was taped to the inner front cover. Once FSG would get these proofs from Crane Duplicating Service, they'd put an ink stamp on the cover in which they would fill in the price and publication date, which they did here in red ballpoint pen. A couple of small smudges to the rear cover and light toning to the edges, else Fine. In stock, ready to ship now from Evanston, IL!
