The slidingback hills - Trower, Peter

With introduction by A. W. Purdy; Clean, tight, unmarked; two small half circle stains to lower back corners; name (Dennis Cooley) inside front cover; small nick to upper spine edge; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; Who is Peter Trower? a handfaller, a shift-worker with the lowest-paid job in the woods, risking his neck to bring home the pulpwood so they can print another issue of the New York Times? A roughneck who knows the insides of the Oakalla prison as well as any inmate on the cell-block? Or a poet with the skill and experience to grab a piece of sky or a girl lovely enough to walk the weathers with? Both, of course. Trower is a poet with dirt on his hands and fire in his mind. This book is a honey: tough and strong and lovely.
Very Good
