1953D15374New York: New Directions 1953. First Edition thus. Hardcover. Fair/Very Good. 8vo; publisher's yellow cloth lettered in blue on the spine. In a supplied Alvin Lustig designed DJ priced at $3.50. A reissue of the earlier New Directions publication this 1953 edition adds two previously unpublished plays. A worn and stained copy the pages browned the top edge of the cloth showing insect damage the bottom portion of the front and rear boards showing the effects of damp-staining. This copy is however inscribed and signed by Tennessee Williams with thanks to Bryand Sheedy. Sheedy bought and ran a guest house in the Turks and Caicos and over the years befriended literary figures Williams among them. Apparently a wide-bodied larger than life figure in the look and manner of a modern day Falstaff he was known to have a large library of inscribed literary first editions see New York Times travel piece on Sheedy from 1998. Unfortunately the Turks and Caicos is not the best place to store a collection of books and Sheedy's copies tended to be judging by the ones we have well on the "sheedy" side. This book is no exception although the supplied Lustig jacket allows it to look ok on the shelf. Sold as is for the interesting association. <br/><br/> New Directions hardcover

1956H30012Rutherford NJ 1956. Very good. 3 pp. but the third page has just a couple lines and WCW's address on 8.5 x 11 sheets tanning and with folds for mailing. "René Char" as the title is crossed out and "Foreword by William Carlos Williams" written in ink -- probably not in Williams' hand. No evidence this was ever published. Williams contributed two translations to "Hypnos Waking" which was mainly edited and translated by Jackson Matthews with contributions from Wilbur Merwin Wright Barbara Howes and William Jay Smith. The book actually has no preface or introduction and simply begins with Char's work. Our guess is that Matthews asked WCW to write this but it was rejected for whatever reason and so the book was issued without any foreword -- and it feels accordingly a little awkward. Williams did write a review in the New Republic of this work but it is completely different from this foreword and there is little if any overlap that review can be found in the collection of Williams reviews and comments "Something To Say" published by New Directions in 1985. There is also a small postcard-sized notice from Gotham Bookmart asking people to use their "district number" in addressing items to them. Provenance: from an established Florida antiquarian bookseller with a 1986 letter from him stating that this came from the collection of Jackson Mathews he also declares that it is signed by Williams but as noted we have reservations about that. unknown
