Ottawa, Borealis, 1972. The first book, a collection of poetry, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Stone Diaries. Inscribed by the author to the poet Peter Stevens: "For Peter Stevens - in appreciation for your friendship and help. Carol Shields." A very nice association: Stevens was not only a poet himself but also a contributing editor to the Ontario Review and the poetry editor of The Canadian Forum and the Literary Review of Canada. He was widely known as an advocate of Canadian literature, which the Shields inscription seems to imply. Fine in wrappers. A very nice copy of an important first book [#914682] $1,000
