Description:
Austin, TX: Skanky Possum , 2000. Trade Paperback. Fine. Tisa, Ken. Book is as new in every respect: creaseless covers and spine, binding is solid and square, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. 87 pages. This ed. limitied to 1/1000 copies, cover art by Ken Tisa. Smells slightly of Nag Champa incense. Kenward Elmslie's poetry and prose is often combined with the graphical work of other artists. A collection of his writing, Motor Disturbance (1971), won the Frank O'Hara Award for Poetry in 1971. He was awarded the National Endowment of the Arts Award for Power Plant Sestina (1967) and the Ford Foundation Grant. In 1973 Elmslie began work as editor and publisher of Z Magazine and Z Press, working to promote the work of other New York School artists such as John Ashbery, Ron Padgett, James Schuyler, and perhaps most extensively, Ken Tisa.

Description:
Austin: Skanky Possum Press, 2000. Perfect-bound in glossy pictorial wraps, 8vo, 87 pp. Very good. Front and back cover portraits by Ken Tisa. Kenward's reading copy with annotations in Elmslie's hand and tipped-in slips sequencing a reading order. We suspect this copy was used in preparation for a reading with Bill Berkson at the St. Marks Poetry Project on October 17, 2001. The most heavily annotated work in the book is "Fifties Probe," which Elmslie in a letter written earlier that month to Lucia Berlin references as the centerpiece of his reading, calling it "my Ashbery Roast cut a tad" (Livingston, Love, Loosha, p. 171).
