Plainfield, Indiana: Alembic Press, 1984. Softcover. Very Good. First edition. Pictorial wrappers. Spine and cover edges faintly toned, front cover with a few tiny spots, very good. From the library of noted poet David Ignatow with his bookplate inside the front cover (and a printed blurb of his on the rear wrap). Inscribed by the author to Ignatow: "Jan 1, 1990 for David Ignatow with much admiration and best wishes - John Tagliabue". A nice association.
