About This Item
(Norfolk, CT: New Directions Books, 1956. First edition. One of 100 copies, signed by Tennessee Williams. Printed by Peter Beilinson at the Peter Pauper Press. Overlooked in light of Williams's titanic reputation as a playwright is the fact that his first appearance in print was in the 1944 anthology Five Young Poets. Williams only published two collections of verse in his lifetime, this being the first, followed by Androgyne, Mon Amour in 1977. Fine in parchment boards, which show a hint of toning to spine. Publisher's slipcase has a bit of paper loss along extremities and toning to edges. (Crandell A16.1.a).
