Howl.

by GINSBERG, Allen

  • Used
  • Hardcover
Harper & Row, New York, 1986
First edition, first printing in this format.
Quarto. Original brown cloth, device to upper board in blind and titles to spine gilt, buff endpapers. With the dust jacket.
An excellent copy in the dust jacket. Signed on the title page by the author and with his presentation inscription to the leaf opposite the title page, "for Ken Mikolowski - 11/17/89 - Jewel Heart Night". Above the inscription Ginsberg has added a drawing - flower, serpent, star. The recipient was the poet and editor, who together with his wife (the artist Ann) founded the influential private publishing house the Alternative Press. They printed and disseminated earl;y work by members of the Black Mountain group, as well as many of the Beat poets including numerous works by Ginsberg himself. The references to Jewel Heart is in regard to the Buddhist collective founded in Mikolowski's home town of Ann Arbor by Gelek Rinpoche. Ginsberg met Gelek in 1989 and was admitted into the group at that time. One presumes this inscription to commemorate that very night. Ginsberg inscriptions are far from scarce but meaningful, literary ones such as this are much harder to find.
