McSloy, Peter For Jazz: 21 Sonnets
Lafayette, CA Hit & Run Press 1994 First Edition/First Printing Fine Fine Mera, Nina
With linoleum cuts by Nina Mera. From the introduction by Ted Gioia "...the jazz sonnets gathered here are another thing entirely. Our poet has penetrated deeply into the jazz art, guiding us to the telling details and epiphinal ecstasies of that world. Most of all, he understands that the apparent free form of jazz is only on the surface, that underneath are unyielding structures, hard as granite. From the colophon: "For Jazz" was printed in an original edition of 1,000 copies: 100, bound in full leather, numbered and signed by poet & artist; 200 in cloth; 700 in paperback. One half of the edition is designated for the USA, the other half for the UK.
