On Bread & Poetry
Bolinas, CA: Grey Fox Press, 1977.
First printing. 47 pp., 5.5 x 8 inches. Perfect-bound in printed card covers. A Panel Discussion with Gary Snyder, Lew Welch & Philip Whalen, edited by Donald Allen. In advance of the giant "Freeway" reading in June 1964, the three poets appeared on KPFA radio, in a program moderated by Jack Nessel. This volume prints the transcript of the radio broadcast, along with reproductions of the three broadside poems published for the reading by the editor, and the short prose text by Welch, "Manifesto: Bread vs. Mozart's Watch," prefaced by an editor's note that contextualizes the materials. Spots of wear to the covers, otherwise very good. Item #6015
