Beschreibung
Apparent First Edition (SD). Also a Limited Edition ( 'Edition limited to 1000 copies'). And I believe there is only one other copy for sale anywhere on the Internet, that one having some fairly significant condition flaws. There are 24 pages containing 47 poems. You can see the covers in the photos. They are in very nice condition. There is a small square shape off the bottom edge of the front cover. My guess: there was a little sticker there of some sort. The area is entirely smooth though, no residue or anything like that, just the little shadow. There is also a tiny nick at the top edge of the rear cover. The book has a stapled binding. It's very solid. All the pages are nicely, tightly bound and the same is the case for the covers. The pages are in excellent condition. They are exceptionally clean. I'm not finding any soiling. There are no placeholder creases. There is a little, thin crinkle off the top edge of two pages, not reaching the print. There is also another thin crinkle just off the juncture of the last handful of pages, also not touching any of the print. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. 'Brendan Kennelly, was an Irish poet and novelist. He was Professor of Modern Literature at Trinity College Dublin until 2005. Kennelly's poetry can be scabrous, down-to-earth, and colloquial. He avoided intellectual pretension and literary posturing, and his attitude to poetic language could be summed up in the title of one of his epic poems, 'Poetry my Arse'. Another long (400-page) epic poem, 'The Book of Judas', published in 1991, topped the Irish best-seller list.' Professor Kennelly won the Irish PEN Award for Literature. The award is for a significant body of work. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 005367
