Hardcover. Condición: Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. A collection of sixteen poems by Jonathan Williams. Drawings by John Furnival. This is one of 250 copies for sale, but not one of the first 100 (which were apparently numbered and signed by the author). After that, describing this book becomes less straightforward. According to the publisher, it is 'something of a sequel' to 'In England's Green &;' published in San Francisco in 1962. In the Lucidities, the author continues to 'wonder at the visionary qualities in certain British artists - their combination of precise, hot, innocent observations that produce at-one-ments at in all our eyes.' (Artists in this oeuvre include Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Mervyn Peake). This is also a very carefully curated publication - again in a slightly idiosyncratic fashion - with its gold foil endpapers/pastedowns - or, e.g. its tapped in silver images of Charles James Macintosh (image); with tissue guard and accompanied by Poem No. 10: Furniture Music: "Three-Piece Suite in the Shape of a Porridge." This purchase consists of the book and the dust jacket, which is contained in a transparent plastic sleeve. Condition (dj) - protected by the sleeve but displays some tanning and is slightly marked in places. Condition (book): pages also have something of a tanned appearance, but possibly reflecting the quality and type of paper used; rather than a reflection of any ageing process. (Printed on Glastonbury antique laid white paper 60 lbs double cream). Hints of wear on parts of the foil endpapers. Unpaginated. 8vo. Please note that, depending on destination, we may request a payment to cover any extra shipping & postage charges. Proceeds to Amnesty International. John Furnival (ilustrador).…
