Chicago: Ralph Fletcher Seymour, 1917. First edition. Vol. X. No. II. ~ May 1917. With five poems by Joyce (Simples, Tutto e Sciolto, Flood, A Flower Given to my Daughter & Nightpiece), their first appearance, preceding Pomes Penyeach by a remarkable ten years. At rear his author description states, "James Joyce is a young Irishman, better known perhaps as a novelist than as a poet. His recent book Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man...is making a decided stir." Printed gray wrappers with Walt Whitman quote on rear. Front wrap a bit worn with a few smudges. Clean within. A William Zorach poem and more. Harriet Monroe (1860-1936) was an extraordinary editor who was much behind the Modernist movement in American poetry. Her magazine first appeared in October, 1912, and it continues to be published to this very day. Monroe gathered up writers such as Joyce, Pound, T.S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, and Robert Frost and published their efforts, often early efforts, in her highly influential journal.

New York, Grove Press, 2022, trade paperback, 272 pp, Advance Uncorrected Proof (ARC), New. Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
