KENNY, Maurice
Dead Letters Sent

NY, Troubador, (1958). The very scarce first book by this writer of Mohawk descent. Poetry, introduced by poet and bookseller Samuel Loveman. Kenny studied poetry at NYU with Louise Bogan, and moved to New York in the 1950s, where he lived for several years. In addition to being an award-winning poet, he has been a publisher (Strawberry Press) and editor of a number of small but important literary journals. A fine copy in plain stapled wrappers, in a dust jacket split in two along the spine, with a tear to the front cover and thus only fair. Scarce. [#027685] SOLD

All books are first printings of first editions or first American editions unless otherwise noted.
