Beschreibung

6 issues, 1975-1980). Illustrated wraps as issued. Good condition with edgewear and a few minor stains. Kayak, born in the cultural ferment of the 1960s, was one of the most distinctive, eagerly read literary journals of the times. From 1964 to 1984 the journal, founded and edited by George Hitchcock, was known for introducing the early work or first books of significant poets. Kayak?s archly cruel rejection slips were famous for Victorian images of traumatic events. Although he leaned toward surrealism and the dreamlike style of the deep imagist school (as featured in the collages and illustrations), Mr. Hitchcock included a variety of poets, publishing the early work of Philip Levine, Raymond Carver, James Tate and Charles Simic. He was the pre-eminent maverick independent magazine publisher (Howard Junker). Notes compiled from Hitchcock obits.
